Across the Street, 4:35 a.m.

 

12/7/23 Maple Leaf neighborhood

I couldn’t sleep. While my coffee brewed, I sketched the house across the street. The owners turn most of them off overnight, but in the evening, many more lights and decorations are visible (similar to last year). I like it best like this – softly twinkling red and white lights on the deck railing – and nothing more.

  1. This reminded me of Jose Louro's "Draw Less, Show More" workshop in Chicago Symposium. Need I say more? :-)

  2. A scene like this makes you appreciate the quiet, calm feel of the early morning.
