Got to drive out to Plimoth Plantation. Beautiful area and dedication to its history. I took my sketchbook and my camera to take notes, reference photos for the era and draw the people and animals present. It’s a great fun place to visit and learn, and an under utilized opportunity for life drawing.
Here are some pencil sketches that I cleaned up a bit in the computer.
I have yet for find a way to draw a chicken that doesn’t make it look at least slightly evil and murderous.
I had a lot of fun drawing the actors there. I have plenty of sketches that I haven’t uploaded yet, but I would like to turn them into watercolors, including one of a man who taught me a lot about pistols of the era, talking to him helped fill out the information I was missing from the Pirate Museum.
