I had made up a couple of small portable sketchbooks to do pen and wash sketches of the places we visited on our cruises in the Greek Islands and France. I was actually able to do quite a bit during our long coach rides and had a number of my fellow guests who saw the process ask me about them.
Here they are:
In addition, I made some 4" x 6" sketches on the river cruise.

painted this courtyard when he was a one-eared
patient here |

I hope to be able to continue this new tradition on future cruises and trips. Keep your eye on this blog; the next trip will be in October along the St. Lawrence River and down the east coast of the U.S.
