Peru

20-40min sketches, progressively better later in the trip. First time sketching environments as I see them. 5"x7" sketchbook worked much better than letter sized I took to Europe last year. 

Sketchbook to be gifted to our gracious host at the community of Chuquitambo.

  1. Update: Your Sketchbook was indeed gifted to our gracious hosts at the community of Chuquitambo, and they thank you greatly!

    The wind turbine there is fully functional and operational, and looks awesome!

    Also, thought it was cool, three or four of your sketches are in the first dozen or two hits on a google image search for Chuquitambo. Also, only one other picture in that search is actually a picture of Chuquitambo. Way to go man!

    Hope you're doing awesome, and you know you're always invited back whenever you want!

    1. Hahaha that's awesome! Thanks!

      Hope you, WindAid, and Chuquitambo are all doing well. I've worked for a year as a mechanical design engineer, and gained much more hands-on workshop experience. I'm in need of a new job though, that's the nature of being a designer.

      I don't have the resources for another trip any time soon, and I want to see / do something in Africa next time I do. But I'll definitely recommend WindAid to like-minded people.
