Thunderbird, Sketch 115

Sketch of the Thunderbird car

Not really close

One day I was hanging around beautiful downtown Buda, Texas, waiting for a friend. I took the opportunity to photograph some cars that were stopped for the red light.

I don’t think my sketch is close enough to be recognizable as this specific car. The idea doesn’t sound that hard, to sketch a vehicle, but my execution is off. I am, however, learning to see details — usually after I finish sketching. Still, it’s all about the learning, right? Right.

In 2009, the Terra Cotta Warriors were displayed at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. No photographs were allowed inside the exhibit, but they had one warrior just outside the exit that we could photograph.
