Taken from the train on the way home. Sometimes the fog is really awesome.

Wrong train
My favorite way to pass time on the commute: Drawing the other passengers. This guy was surprised to learn that the train did not indeed stop at his intended destination. Drawn on an iPad mini using PicsArt.

Dry forest
Hasn't rained in a long time so the park near the house is quite brittle. Still quite peaceful to listen to the wind in the trees though.

Water dog lake
Quick mountain biking trip to water dog. Beautiful day but windy as hell at the lake.

Unsuspecting passengers
Drawing on the train again. Now I'm experimenting with dark backgrounds instead of white. It's a whole different way of working. I love it when they're sleeping - they are perfectly still and clueless that I'm drawing them from three feet away:
This guy with the beard! He was sitting across the isle from me, and on the older trains, on the top level, there's this shelf. So the top of his face is above the shelf and the rest of him is below, so I'm doing this weird dance in my seat where I'm craning my neck up to look over and then slumping down to look under. I wonder if anyone else even noticed? Then as I'm working on his hands we pull into my station so I'm saving the file as I'm walking down the stairs. Pretty happy with how it came out!
Another sleeper:
Chalkboard! White chalky brush on a blackboard background. This guy was right across from me but pretty focused on his video game:

Sketching at Half Moon Bay
Pony ride to Half Moon Bay today. I did some sketching in the car and at the beach both old-school and digital. The drive there (I'm not the one driving!):
The beach:
The view from Sam's Chowder House in PicsArt on an iPhone painting with my finger:

drawing fireworks on a phone
Actually much easier than drawing on paper since you can see what you are doing.
