Sara at the window


 I’m just giving in to this whole looking out the window thing. Here are four  sketches I did of what I see...the page is 9x12. The medium is black Pilot gel pen.

I think this is done. I understand now why some artists title their paintings Study in Yellow and Blue...this is 12 x 16 on hot press. It’s watercolor with color pencil and watercolor pencil. It reminds me a bit of Edward Gorey drawings.

  1. I really like the contrast between inside and outside, also the way you kept things texturally interesting, instead of tossing in a solid dark shape for the building across the street. It just feels like I'm in a cozy room. I am a big fan of your sketches and love the way you documented the snow... from inside!

  2. Love how you were able to do lamp and window in same color and yet one doesn’t blur into the other. Lots of mood....”reading a book inside a warmly lit room on a winter night”.
