Lafazio Watercolor Journal Class Week 3: Go out and Sketch/Paint in Public...

Our assignment this week is to go to a museum. I've decided to go to to small privately owned place downtown - The Museum of Un-natural History. A one-man show of funky dadaism inspired art.

This week we are to use our watersoluble Tombow pens to capture images.  Then brush the lines to create depth, and finish the work at home...adding color, words, frame, etc. 

Later...

Well I must admit, this was harder than last week.  The museum was small and bursting with his artwork...sensory overload for me.  And the aisle ways were narrow, and no where to sit.  I felt cramped and uncomfortable standing.  So I did two quick pen sketches then left and headed off to our town's historcial "Kirkman House Museum." 

Below is the result of the Museum of Un-natural History visit once I got home to work on it more.  I wasn't sure if I would even finish it, but I do like the end result.  Later I'll post my sketches from the Kirkman museum.
