First off is a sketch I made yesterday while waiting for my other half to have a job interview. The train station at Aberdeen is one of the few buildings made of any stone but granite and I made a terrible, rushed job of matching the colour. In my defense, with all the granite around, the sandstone stands out as being a little vibrant but not the sunflower yellow I have come up with here.
The facade has been incorporated into a new shopping mall in a fairly sympathetic way but it does feel as though it is an exhibit rather than a necessary thing.
I really did intend to drab down the colours but I got cut short. That will be my job for next time. Also, the Letraset pen I used for the heavier lines turns out to be very water soluble. That was immediately demoted to crossword duty.
Today I was again waiting at Kilau coffee for the same other half and noticed they have used espresso cups as the tieback decoration for the curtains, I had a go at sketching them.
