Using Thumbnails to Capture your Journey with Speed Sketching
Inspiration from Andrew James and Amy Stewart about using a road trip to document a travel journey with small and simple thumbnail sketches. I experimented with the idea of sketching from a train using a slowed-down video on YouTube.

Urban Sketching People on an Olhão Day Out (Day 64)
Day 64 of sketching people. A sunny day so I headed to the Algarve town of Olhão for a full day of urban sketching. I sketched on public transport there and back, and at the market, and a local cafe. There was also a surprise Carnaval parade that had taken place, and that greeted me when I arrived. Another interesting sketching opportunity.
