I think I need to start dealing with white balance… I take these photos outside and they always look very blue

Still in Seoul. This Arizona boy is not used to this humidity! But what a cool country, we’re loving it here. These are a couple of buildings right outside our hotel. #usk #urbansketch #urbansketchers #urbansketching

In Seoul! Sketches from day one, possibly two. It's kind hard to keep track of the day! N Seoul Tower and the Chinese Embassy (i think).
These are all out the hotel windows, going to try to do some sketching out in the street tomorrow.

Timelapse of the medical building #urbansketch yesterday. I’ve found the more I do this out on the go, the more I simplify my process and style. Now I’m just heading out with a sketchbook and a #lamysafari, instead of the whole watercolor kit I was taking out earlier this year. #usk #pendrawing

Sigh. I love your work but not so much the _constant_ posting and reposting filling my feed with the same posts over and over.

Still working on getting the neck mounted GoPro timelapse well stabilized. This didn't work out too well but I have a couple ideas for next time. #usk #urbansketch #urbansketchers #urbansketching

I got a GoPro neck mount for recording sketches. This is sped up 50x. I recorded this at normal speed, and when sped up I found I needed to stabilize this because the camera was constantly moving up and down from my breathing. #usk #urbansketch #urbansketchers #urbansketching #tempe

What to do while your partner is at the doctor? Sketch the parking lot of course.

Oh yeah I can definitely see that happening. It can be hard to get flowing sometimes and I’ve found it kills converters pretty quickly. Luckily I’m currently obsessed with these pens and have the opposite problem that I run out of ink so much I have to take several full pens when I go out lol

Right now I'm going through a bottle of R&K "Lotte" SketchInk which I like a lot. Very fast drying and completely waterproof for adding washes and watercolor. I've found Platinum Carbon Black is very similar.

Part of this trip was a pilgrimage to Shakespeare's Pizza in Columbia, MO. I haven't been in 20+ years. Even though they tore down the old building the inside seems completely preserved. One of my favorite places on earth.
