. . . And in honor of a sunny Friday after many days of rain
and wind, I got out my watercolors on Crown Hill’s Eighth Avenue Northwest, where
trees line the boulevard between the two sides of this wide arterial, and more
trees stand on either side of the street. This late in fall, the color isn’t
quite as bright as it was a month ago,
and it was a little too cold to sketch outside my car. I could see blue sky and
shadows, though, and that’s good enough for me.
Happy weekend!
Glad you had some sunshine so you could sketch outdoors...even if it was from the car. (I did the same thing today because it was too windy and cold out.) Good sketch. The color really pulls you into the scene and down the street.
ReplyDeleteNice sketch, Tina. I'm surprised that you still have leaves on the trees. Excepting a few stragglers that just haven't fallen, ours are all gone.
