Sketchbook Peek: I hate trees

Okay, I really only hate drawing trees. Now I understand why so many urban sketchers stick to buildings – they’re easier. Anyway, I decided to take advantage of the morning light to draw the view out the kitchen door onto the deck. We have a gorgeous crape myrtle that blooms bright pink late into the summer, but of course it’s currently January, so it’s nothing more than sticks and some dried out berries. The deck railing is in desperate need of a good cleaning, which will also be waiting for warmer weather. But this was a bit of a fun experiment with my new pens of varying widths.

While we’re focusing on the mundane, here’s a little sketch I did of the kitchen counter as seen from the living room couch, drawn while my husband was cooking dinner.
