This is a photograph of a coastal scene from the point of view on top of the hillside. In the photo you can also see a sketchbook that's painted the same scene. The painting is a watercolour that has been done loosely. The majority of the painting is the sky.

Last week was tough for me, so on one of my worse days I dragged myself to the park for another nature study. I practiced once more with my viewfinder to improve on my issues with scale.

I didn’t feel much better after, but gradually my symptoms improved with a few days time.

A hand holds a small sketchbook with a watercolor sketch on the right side featuring the thick trunk and large splitting branches of an old oak tree. The tree itself is in the background.

The right side of the sketchbook has notes about the painted image. September 2025.

Just another ink brush drawing of Los Angeles apartment stairs, I wouldn’t call it an abstract meltdown, more of a loose congealed tree situation

This is a photograph from the top of the hillside looking down into a valley. The Sun is low the sky causing long cast shadows and in the foreground is a drawing of the same scene.
