Although the weather here in Iowa has been sultry, at best--not a word often used to describe our climate--the Saturday sketchers were diligent and faithful last Saturday. We went to one of the local parks despite the triple digit heat, and sketched a bicycle path passing into the park from Gray's Lake.
The heat was made bearable by a semi-cool breeze that eddied into the deep shade where I sat. The bicycle path was surprisingly busy with single cyclists and groups. I actually did two quick ink and wash sketches in watercolor. The first was a wider view and included lots of sky; the second was a smaller sketch in a 5x9 sketchbook.
