Pencil drawing at camp
While being a camp counselor at Camp Celiac for a couple weeks, it was nice to be able to sneak away for a while to be creative. Not knowing how much time I was going to have, I stuck with pencil, which always makes for quick set up and clean up. Landscape drawing with pencil is always challenging because I have to get creative determining what shade to give to different colors. I sketched this plein-air and then later, snapped a photo of the scene with my phone. I think it turned out quite accurate to the scene...not as much artistic licence as I have taken in the past! I need to work on not smearing as I drag my hand across my work.
