1929 Bugatti Sketch

 



 I recently got the second volume of Karen Campbell's book "Learn to Draw Art Deco Style." I enjoyed the first volume, but haven't gotten around to work with it yet. The second volume just blew me away. I had to try my hand at drawing at least one of those sleek cars!



My husband Sandy wants to trade my car in and get one of those electric cars. Well, unless the 1929 Bugatti comes with a battery, this sketch is what he will get for Father's Day!


 

After following all the direction to draw this car, I used a Micron (01) Pen for the the pencil lines and colored the car with Copic Markers. The grey detail is actually done with a white Prismacolor Pencil.

I'm really happy with my finished piece and look forward to work on more in both the first and second volumes in these great books.
