Two Gas Pumps

“Two Pencil and Colored Pencil Drawings of One Old Gas Pump” is too long of a title for a blog post, but it is more accurate than “Two Gas Pumps”.

Let’s review:

Two sketches
Drawing #1 of the Silver City gas pump under way.
Drawing #2 under way.

Now, new pictures for you.

Pump drawing #1 before color added.
Pump #1 with color added.
Gas Pump #2 before color added.
Gas Pump #2 with color added.

I can do a tiny bit better. #1 needs more separation between the closer and the more distant trees. Pump #2 needs to be a bit smoother. Both could be a bit brighter in the color department.

A bit more distinction to push the farther trees back.
A smoother surface on the pump.

Phew. I’m outta gas. . .
