Sleddog Sketch



I was good and brought a small sketchbook along to draw in on my last plane flight. This was done from a photo out of an Alaska Airlines magazine. Ballpoint pen.

She's got a funny expression because she's pulling a sled, which seems a bit strange out of context, but then, I wasn't drawing this for an audience.

I always sketch in ballpoint pen - it is my preferred sketching medium. It makes me be less of a perfectionist by making me be okay with mistakes, or to at least incorporate mistakes into the drawing. It also makes me more of a perfectionist by slowing down and making sure the next line I draw is something I *actually* want. ;) Bah.
