Uprstream, Spring

"On the Creek Bank, April," mixed media on paper, ~5x8

It won't be long until this image will match the changes along Druid Hill Creek. This particular sketch actually looks upstream toward a small bluff over the eroded channel to the south. The water turns a rusty red-brown when sediment from the uprstream golf course starts to wash down in spring. 

This was done on the spot, in a small sketchbook, but unlike other works this is not only watercolor and ink but there are touches of gouache as well, hence the "mixed media"label.
