i travel sketch live

Last Sunday we went to the mini park just 5 mins away from our apartment. We had beed waiting for this tree to turn all yellow this autumn but it did not. It is now winter and it's time has come. It was not a cold Sunday and I had the opportunity to just wear my slippers out and so I did.

We went for a quick morning side-trip to the Inaba Shrine last monday and found myself painting the shrine gate. It was a few degrees colder at the shrine than in the main city streets. There were less people so it was more quiet than usual although it is generally quiet in temple areas.

Earlier Today, I sketched these trees which was ten minutes away form our apartment. It feels great to sketch in pencil again and I think I will be sketching more in pencil this winter.
