Au plien air . . . . . .

Sketches done this week on  a “Mountain Sketching” day organised as part of a fairly local walking festival. . . .  an incredibly hot and sunny day. I elected to do something sitting in a cool shady spot.  So I had a limited view of the mountains.  It was far too hot to sit out in the sun for long.   I have one more picture which I may add to for another post …..

 

box tree
A huge ancient “box” tree – adjacent to what must have been an old house on a “drovers” road. it had the most incredible knots and whirls in the trunk and was bent right over.

  2. Especially love the pen and wash. I’ve never painted in the open. The bugs would beset me I’m sure
