I'm branching out from my coffee shop series and trying to capture a few other places in Toronto. This is the St. Lawrence MArket. A great people watching place and a lot of eye candy to sketch.
I thought I'd show the process of how one of these micron pen and watercolour drawings come to be. I've changed my process a bit and when I want to capture people I try to sketch them in with pencil quickly and then black line it.

I really appreciated seeing the progress. I actually enlarged nos. 2 & 3, and clicked back and forth so I could see the differences. The most interesting for me was inside the refrigerated cases - all painted in, no pen. Well done!
excellent and thanks! about how long did this take you to complete.
Dan-- thanks. I really like that part as well and it was the quickest part to do!
Genine--thanks for dropping by. It took me about 4 hours to blackline it and about the same amount of time to paint it.
Your work is amazing! Wow, really good. I'll follow your blog!
Thanks for showing the process here. What a wonderful sketch. Lovely colors too.
Amazing.. to tell the least! I love the way you put in details in all your sketches.. Can you tell me where did you sketch this one from? I mean, where were you placed inside the store while sketching this? I am not able to imagine how I would be able to draw this kind of a lovely view, from inside a supermarket...
