Our lovely San Diego Sketchcrawlers met at Bernardo Winery last weekend. Just as we'd arranged our stools in the shade, we were told we couldn't stay long in that location. (Something about a wedding about to start...seriously they were setting up for a wedding and of course we were going to leave before the bride showed up!) So, I'd started drawing this old rusty stove with my water-soluble stabilo pencil, intending to do a quick sketch, but I really sped up the pace and did it in less that 30 minutes..while talking to my friends!
The background was done with spray gesso and my stencils. Then a watercolor wash.

    Lovin' your art, Jane,

    Sometimes I am amazed at what you can produce in so little time.

    Does the spray gesso mess up your stencil or does it just wipe off when you are done?
