Ink Sketches

Saigon sketchbook spread, 2023

Ink on paper
12″ x 8″

These sketches were part of my travel journal, where I made daily sketches of scenes I observed. Along with developing my drawing abilities, my goal with these sketches is to encourage myself to actively observe the world around me.

Mom in Chinatown, NYC. 2022

Ink on paper

I made this drawing of my mom in Chinatown, NYC, after our first trip there. This drawing was one of my first observational ink sketches, which prompted my interest in creating drawings in this style.
