Watercolor Sketching Treetops
2014-05-30
Kindof a gray overcast weekend, but my sketchbook was calling me!
I've always felt like I live in a treehouse. We live in the Appalachian foothills, in a oak-pine forest. The big tree here is a tulip poplar.
Start with a quick sketch and wash.
Move in a bit more color. I threw the frisbee for my dog after this so it dried more than I planned.
It was all a bit stark so I blurred it. A few dabs on this lightly sized paper is enough to soften the lines.
A nice day sketching!
