Sketching and more sketching

I am trying to do some more sketching, sometimes in my regular sketchbook and some in a watercolor journal. I want to practice as I am going to the US later this summer for a few weeks. And I want to do a lot of sketching! I even bought a completely new Moleskine watercolor journal for the trip and I want to fill every page :-).

Sketches in my sketchbook for the WDE (Weekend Drawing Event) on WetCanvas.

Sketches from images in a travel brochure, we are travelling from Eqypt, to Africa, to Guatemala and a tropical island, in one page.

And the same page with some watercolors. What a difference that makes.

And a crab from an image on WetCanvas, pen with watercolors.
