Parklands 2, watercolor and pastel on watercolor paper,
8 x8 inches
This photo reference was from a solo hike I did back in December when the weather had been gray for too many days. I got my rump out to explore a relatively new park in the Louisville area. The only problem -- it was a long drive from where I live. By the time I arrived I was claustrophobic from being in a car by myself, so I walked for quite a while to shed that feeling. And I took some very serene and still photos. There wasn't another human to be found, which left the landscape begging for attention. Not a difficult thing for me to do.
The pastel on this drawing became a bit whimsical and active. I'm starting to miss larger scale drawing all of a sudden, despite the fact that I am quite content still with painting small.
