Above the Clouds

This sketch had to be made FAST! There was only 40 mins in the air from the small airfield at Keri Keri in Northland, NZ to Auckland. While settling in seats and the propellers were turning I was quickly working on the window frame and the body of the 50 seater aircraft. The woman sitting in the next seat was fascinated and wanted to see the rest of the sketches but there was no time to spare.
The perspective up there was weird, a really interesting painting exercise, looking down like a map yet your brain is insisting that there are hills and valleys. The water threatened to spill on the bumps too!
