Once
the weather goes cold and dark, I find myself drifting more and more in the
monochrome direction. Color can always be found, any time of year, if I look
hard enough. But I think it’s more about my own mood than about the physical
world. Winter is a more contemplative, introspective season (at least for me), and
sketching with one color (or one implement) keeps the focus on values, shapes
and form instead of hues.
