Flying back from San Jose sketches




Intercontinental flights mean being at the airport way in advance and a lot of dead time to use. This is where having a portable sketching set-up makes sense. 



My sketching material for travel: 
  • Moleskine watercolour notebook.
  • Sennelier watercolour travel box with 14 half pans. Light box with a good selection of fine colours and an integrated palette. 
  • Micron ink pens 0.5 – black and brown. 
  • Pen brushes filed with water 
  • Some travel brush (I rarely use them) 
  • A mechanical pencil (again, I rarely use it as I am drawing directly with the ink pens) 
  • A rag. I clean the brush pen tip when I change colour.
The whole thing fits into a clear plastic bag with a zip.
