My view from our apartment in Cochem, Germany in the Mosel River. Acrylic on canvas covered board.
A quick charcoal drawing in Lille, France.
A gift for our waiter in Amboise, France.
A tiny acrylic painting looking out of the window at 1am in Paris.
A quick pastel on sandpaper drawing of my favorite person in the world...drawn in Edinburgh, Scotland.
A very tiny pen and ink and colored pencil drawing of Neuschwanstien Castle in Germany.
A tiny drawing done while waiting to enter the Theatre Sebastopol in Lille, France. We went there specifically to see Lara Fabian in concert. I hoped to give this to her, but had no opportunity to do so.
I thought you might enjoy seeing some work that I have done this past year on my travels. I bring with me the following in my tiny art box: 6 tubes of acrylic paint, 4 x 6 canvas covered boards, a piece of glass for a palette, paint brushes, NuPastel chalk pastels and fine grit black sandpaper to do pastels on, a package of handi-wipes, smooth vellum, art pens, and colored pencils. These all fit nicely in a 5 x 7 x 7 tupperware-like container with a handle. Since I am only 4'10", it also serves as my foot platform while sitting on the plane. As you can see, these are all quickly done works in a small format. And I enjoy using a variety of mediums. I save my oil paints for my studio only.
