I usually start out with 3 or 4 thumbnails for composition, about 1" x 2".

I decided on the centered version of the Terminal Tower with just one tree, 

tried to draw jets that were in a flight path above us, but erased them.

Great day for sketching and a good turnout.

Here's an earlier sketch from Grove Court near W. 25.

My first contribution to Urban Sketchers!

I liked the red pick-up with the blue sign.

Sunday Sketch Outing

It was great seeing so many sketcher friends, old and new, out Saturday morning.  I had planned to sketch the Terminal Tower, but after a couple of attempts, I changed my mind and drew the buildings at the southern end of East 4th.  It was a great morning, and the rain held off until we were all pretty much done for the morning.
