Sketchbook Delay

watercolor page of a sunset in Bryce


Sunrise page! painted from inside a warm car

If anyone knows what kind of bird this is...I would love
to know.  He made short, sharp calls, and bobbed a lot!
He was black, and flitted from rock to rock in the river.

The opening page in the Zion/Bryce sketchbook


I just now finished up my little sketchbook from my
recent trip to Zion and Bryce Canyon in Utah.  I
was waiting to get some of my photos back, and I
was also working on some more pressing art.  I put it
on the back burner for awhile, but decided to finish it
up last night.  I used a Moleskin watercolor sketchbook..
in the landscape format.  I really enjoyed using it.  The
paper is a good watercolor weight, and I like the
elastic band that holds it closed.  I ordered a similar
one to take with me to Peru next month.
