Drawing ahead
There's planning ahead and there's drawing ahead. In this case, I'm hoping to visit Ireland in 2008 and am doing some armchair traveling in preparation. I've only been drawing since May so I'm panicky about being able to keep my first travel sketchbooks in the coming months.....so decided to draw from photos as a way to practice. This is a watercolor painting of the Gallarus Oratory on the Dingle Peninsula of County Kerry, a place I look forward to seeing in person. It was fun to draw -- with simple lines I could manage -- and an opportunity to practice drawing rocks.
This is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThis is really good, I love it...and I just love rocks.
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful! and what a great idea. By the time you go it will be second nature for you to draw these things. I am excited for you for your trip. I hope you have a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteThat's really well done! O'm sure you'll have no problems sketching your vacation.
ReplyDeleteperfectly! Well done! Great rocks!
ReplyDeleteVery, very nice! I'm so jealous you're going to Ireland. One day I hope to visit there, and Scotland, too, but not in the near future. Fill up those sketchbooks so we can all get a look.
