I sat in my car by the side of Lake Megunticook, sketching.
I then made this painting back home,
from the sketch & from memory. No photo.
Sketching on location gave me
an excuse to be immersed in the colors, movement,
changing light, & air for more than a passing moment.
Good for the soul.

A gorgeous bouquet from Autumn!
So grateful.
It's one of my favorite spots in the whole world.
Witam serdecznie. Miło jest mieć swoje ukochane miejsce i wracać do niego. Ta wyspa, patrząc na zdjęcie, musi być piękna. Pozdrawiam serdecznie i przesyłam całusy.

ReplyDeleteRita -- I can feel the kinetic energy in this sketch. The colors and the way you applied them is lovely. I believe your new environment is providing a lot of material for your sketching. -- barbara
