LANDSCAPE SKETCH: AUTUMN AT THE LAKE

I am SO looking forward to autumn!  Even though it is still hot and muggy here in Tennessee, I am starting to see little pops of color to encourage me that my favorite season will soon be here.  We have a particular hickory tree that starts turning scarlet at the end of August, just to make leaf-lovers like me happy!  This landscape started out as a black and white...a grisaille drawing. I then used some colored pencils to lightly put in the beginnings of the season.  I look forward to my fall picnics, drives in the country, and sipping hot tea to my heart's content!
