Conference Doodles

I brought my sketchbook, waterbrush, and travel set of watercolor paints to a Med School Retreat last week and sat in the last row at an end seat so I could doodle during the proceedings. I sketched the keynote speaker and then painted the sketch without the person sitting next to me even realizing. Then I turned over the program and sketched the panel discussion and moderator in ball point pen - to try to practice figures. In the spirit of playing with art, I decided to cut out and collage my figure doodles with the painting. Definitely an unplanned composition! Again, I think I'm so tired after a 2 day Thanksgiving event in our apt. that I forgot to crop the scan before posting it! It is definitely in my Moleskine large size journal!

What a happy accident, the collage is perfect. And all too familiar. Wish I had been sketching when I had to go to these events.
