fathers day at Point reyes

tunnelSharpee pen, watercolor, leaves on soft press w/c paper

Bob and I spent the day at Point Reyes, the park and the town.  A lazy, unambitious day.  He wanted to play with his new “lens baby” on the trail, which turned out to be fine since I wasn’t even up for a hike.  So I scrambled down to the creek, stinging myself on nettles and perching on a rock, watching a chipmunk eat a seed and perform a fastidious face cleaning, looking me in the eye the whole time.  And once again I sketched a tunnel, this time using almost no green, which is the color of everything in the woods. Next time I’ll try sketching the chipmunk, if I’m brave.
