Sketchbook - 2015
Just returned - 2 months dirt bagging - both Sierra and Sawtooth.
When not fishing - (was unbelievable BTW),
Carried along a 10"/13", hard-cover, art sketchbook... good paper.
Using a limited 3 color palate, and waterpens...all backpack-able stuff.
Even though the best fishing trip ever, still somehow managed to fill up the book.
So without giving out plein air locations - (TRs to come) - for the next few days,
I present my sketchbook, my views/ places visited...in no particular order,
all done in pen and ink.

Nice work Mark. What a wonderful way to spend an afternoon in the Sierra.

Really nice pics!
The third one down looks like a list of hiker's trail names. True?

Re: Sketchbook - 2015
Mark, it was great meeting you at the TM Market picnic tables the other day and having a chance to chat it up for a bit, while we (the motley crew) were waiting for the shuttle. Plus, thanks much for sharing your summer 2015 sketchbook with me that day. The drawings are most definitely superb, what a summer!!!

Re: Sketchbook - 2015
Very nice Mark! I'm going to show them to my budding artist of a daughter. Something has to move her away from anime characters for a bit.
If you don't know where you're going, then any path will get you there.

What medium are you using? I really like those. My limited artistic abilities cause me problems playing pictionary!
