Tony, the conductor
Ninja February 5th, 2008
Last week, the train conductor was teasing me as I sketched the seat in front of me and said I should draw him instead. So I took him up on his offer and sketched him on my train schedule.
Please meet Tony, my train conductor.
Here’s the process:
I used a regular ball point pen that I found on the bottom of my purse. I didn’t have any gesso on me this time. Plus, it’d get awfully messy if I did attempt to use it on the train. Sorry, my hands were a little shaky as I was taking the process photos.
Happy drawing,
Ninja

Shucks, thanks! I really wanted to continue the series, but I don't really have many willing participants. Also, I'm a bit shy, so when I finally get the nerve to ask permission to sketch them, they get all self-conscious and fidgety. I much prefer a candid session anyways. I have started sketches of people sleeping on the train (only 2, both men). But then there's the problem of them suddenly waking up and thinking that I'm checking them out. @____@

I tried to give it to him this week, but oddly enough he wasn't on the train. Not only that, the other conductors say they haven't heard of him. It's like he's a ghost or something... Haha, more likely that he's a recently hired conductor who only works part time, so no one's really familiar with him. I'll try again next week.

Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

Point taken. But I'm just saying I'd rather not jump to conclusions, you know?
