A few behind-the-scene snapshots from a wonderful time sketching the University of Washington scientific research vessel Thomas G. Thompson and some crew members. Main sketch process: Light drawing with H pencil; ink line with Carbon Desk Fountain pen on 11 x 14 inches sheet of 140lb Hot Press Arches watercolor paper; portraits done on pocket sketchbook —thx to @uwenvironment for the photo!— and redrawn later.)
