This ceramic piece is as unusual as it looks in this pencil study.

By the road, again

Another “view” from the recent road trip. This isn’t an actual scene, just a composite of the shapes and colours and cows along the way.

Had fun sketching in the car, trying to capture a sense of the passing landscape along the I-81, passing through Virginia.

Exotic plants

This huge aloe gets its lower leaves lopped off because they are so pointed you could cut yourself brushing by the tip. It creates a rather exotic, and odd, plant in the front yard.

A quick sketch of the view from my pillow for the last ten days or so.

Pub stop, again

Cop Brewery, Crystal River, Florida. There are brewpubs everywhere it seems. Enjoyed chatting with some locals here.

Getting back to sketching and posting after activity overload on cruise, and no internet. I’m finally figuring out how to paint on the paper in this sketchbook.
