Sketchcation: Disney (The Sequel)

You may remember that last year, my sister and I went on a trip to Disneyworld. We had such a good time, and Hilary used her ticket ninja skills to work out an affordable trip so we could go again! And this year, she didn't have to work! I still couldn't resist a few sketches!

Had to start with a tiny (3x4!) night painting of the castle, first day in the park!

Did a much larger (9x12), much faster painting during fireworks on another night.

Also did a subject I missed last time: Space Mountain!

The Tree of Life

I wanted to sketch the tree in Animal Kingdom last year, but never got around to it. I did this right when we entered the park, the light was cooperating! I was so happy with the result (the circular composition was one of the better ideas I had that week, if I do say so myself!)

Also in Animal Kingdom: Mount Everest! This roller coaster is SO much fun!

By popular demand: the Haunted Mansion! I originally thought I might do this as a nocturne, but surprisingly it's not lit particularly well (or spookily!) at night.

Another favorite: Splash Mountain! It wasn't running when we were there last year, so we went on it multiple times this year to compensate!

Snuck this last one of the castle in on our last day; this balloon man and the tiniest Belle on the last day. Mostly from life, but inspired by a photo I took on another day.

Last sketch of the trip! A super quick one of Dumbo. I've already gotten more ideas for sketches for next time!
