Held Rock IV w color
Color happens… at least while I have my pan pastels out next to the drawing board!
Held Rock Continued
Fall flowers…
And based on that test, here is the original with color
Adding color as a test?
When is more too much?
Held Rock almost finished?
Now the question is: when to stop?
Soon I think… but there may be some parts competing, not complimenting, so I keep fussing: you can see a few adjustments (and another 2 inches of the full square) in the image below.
I have to scan this in 4 parts to get the whole thing, and still managed to cut off at least 1/2″. But did notice until I had done all the careful work assembling the parts. So that is just it for now…
Held Rock III, pieced scan
Back from Dungeness Recreation Area
Lovely to wake up near the bluff view of the water, hear loons and ravens, and many, many cedar waxwings, chickadees, nuthatches, and more.
Held Rock III, in progress
Lovely to spend an hour or two drawing a the picnic table.
Lovely to wander for hours with my binoculars in beautiful sunny fall weather and surroundings: woods, grassy meadow, mountains in the distance.
Even nice to hear & see the groups of hobyahs (oh, I mean lively loud children) out experiencing nature at the top of their lungs!
