A day trip to San Francisco

Although James and I now live 1-hour-train-ride away from San Francisco, travelling to and walking in the city is like going to a foreign country. The vibe, the people, the view, the space...everything is different from what I see around Palo Alto.

We only spent a few hours there but I managed to do a few sketches (James did one with oil pastels as well!). My Noodler's ink again stained all over my sketches but this time I know how to deal with it. I learnt a trick from Urban Sketchers Tainan (Taiwan) that the Magic Eraser sponges are great to lift paint (ink in my case) without damaging paper. The sponge is now taking a permanent corner in my sketch kit!

    These are wonderful sketches! And if you are getting that much leakage, it's time to get a new pen! ;-)
