Lovesick Lake IX

Today with the winds of 23mph (37km) and gusts of 37mph (60km) this morning the winds lifted my patio table and broke the platform as well as moving all the chairs together with the exception of one onto the front lawn.

After I finished the barn chores, I picked them up and moved them to the back of the house where they would not be blown away or damaged.

I decided that I would like to finish this drawing that I sketched last year when Ron and I were out on Lovesick Lake.

















I started with the large pine tree on the island and gradually added the smaller trees, the bushes and the growies at the base of the pine tree. 

Next, I put in the outline of the rocks followed by the shading on them.

Into the background, I added the two islands, followed by putting in the horizon line.

Lastly, I indicated a few of the waves at the base of the main island.

This 7" x 9" pen and ink drawing when matted and shrink wrapped will be available for $60.00.
