Sketching People during our Planes, Trains and Automobiles Adventure to Greece (Day 157)

Two Trains, Two Planes, and a Taxi ride to reach our Greek destination of Crete. I managed a couple of sketches of people I encountered along the journey. I don’t think night flights are ideal for getting a lot of sketching done.

Flying Home after the Toulouse Urban Sketcher’s Symposium (Day 156)
