Description

Lifeguard Station 19 drawing is an original pen and ink with a subtle watercolor wash, inspired by the crisp midday light along Fort Lauderdale Beach. The bright white structure, sharp shadows, and coastal surroundings created a striking contrast that immediately caught my attention. That moment became the foundation for this piece, which evolved from an initial pencil sketch into a refined ink and wash drawing.

About This Pen & Ink Drawing

This piece began as a loose pencil study before transitioning into ink and watercolor. Working in ink brings a certain intensity—each line is permanent, requiring focus and confidence with every mark. Without relying on drawn guidelines, I worked directly from observation, allowing the lines to build the structure organically.

That balance between control and spontaneity is what gives the drawing its energy.

Artist Notes

Color is used sparingly here to reflect the clarity of Florida’s midday light. I kept the watercolor soft and minimal so the ink work carries the composition, letting the structure, shadows, and linework define the scene.
