I think color pencils are highly under-estimated. In our home, we have them lying around, to be used by young nephews and nieces to keep them occupied while adults are busy with whatever they are doing. If you notice color pencils come in a wide range of colors and are relatively inexpensive. They can be used wet or dry and can give fine line edges as well as blends of colors. I have some more ideas which will fructify soon.. wait for them!
What is it about boats that capture the artists eyes - there seems to be a kind of philosophy around boats.. the freedom, the abandon, the water.. The houses in pencils are a deviation from my usual subjects, but i liked the result - may qualify to be sent to someone as a greeting card :)

I liked the sail boat sketch a ton ! Keep going Push !
Houses...caught my fascination. It has the R K Laxman feel to it..Wonderful!!! where were they, never seen these sketches
Nice sketches. True, paintings and drawings of boats are always attractive.. most likely, as you said, due to the freedom they represent. The billowing sails show up nicely in the 2nd. Did you sketch from memory or from a photograph?
