Monhegan Sketchbook July 28
We're back on Monhegan! A friend is here with her partner and their two moms, both in their 80's. Our friend rented a golf cart to aid with the moms' mobility on the island, and I had the pleasure of painting with them up on Lighthouse Hill yesterday. I need to do a little tweaking, then will post that painting later this week. Today it has gone from gray to drizzle, to SIDEWAYS DOWNPOUR, and now maybe to some clearing. I have been working in my sketchbook, using watercolor and/or watercolor pencils. Here are some recent images.
As always, thanks for looking. I love your comments, too.
I just love your colors here! Is that a bit of blue pastel in the second image? The trees are gorgeous too!! Oh to be able to paint like this!!
ReplyDeleteI love your sketches, Jody....You are an inspiration....
ReplyDeleteThanks, CrimsonLeaves. I have been trying some layering with Derwent watercolor pencils. I can apply them, activate with some water, then layer back on top with more pencil right into the wet. I like the variety of textures.
ReplyDeletesublime drawings.
ReplyDeleteWe're headed to Nova Scotia for a week and I'm only bringing watercolors and sketchbooks.
Carry on master sketcher ;)
