The weather so far in December has been generally warmer than usual with very little snow. The nearly twenty inches of snow from late November and very early this month has all melted away, leaving raw ground and grey skies.

| "Up on Sherman Hill,," wc/ink on paper |
With moderate weather, the Saturday sketchers have managed sketching outside (albeit often from the car) most of the time. Last weekend was no exception. For the second weekend in a row we went to Sherman Hill for source material. I sketched from my car, parked on Woodland Avenue, looking westward. The Victorian tower attracted me most so that was my intended center of interest. I began with an accurate graphite sketch then laid on watercolors and finished by detailing with waterproof ink.
