I walk up the rise from my house, and this is the first bit of the field you see as you exit our neighborhood. It’s alive with all kinds of wild weeds and flowers…my absolute favorite kinds! Somehow, tangles of goldenrod and other wild growth really speak to me. I made a little video (very very UN professional!) so you could hear my field. You just gotta be here feeling the weather of the day, the sounds of the field to really get a sense of why I’m so in love with this spot. Perhaps my little video will give you a feel for it. There’s always the hope that drawing on-site will actually get these sights and sounds into the drawing. I’m not sure ’bout that, but I do hope you enjoy!

Great sketch and use of color! I love fields like this, too.
I liked seeing that video! And, look at the difference between the colors of your painting on the video compared to what you scanned. It looks even better in the video. The colors sing!
How nice to let us see the field and your lovely sketch.
Lovely to see where your inspiration comes from. It is a wonderful field sketch.
Nice sketch! And I like that video too..wanted to leave comment on it but it’s disabled 🙁
