every-single-day

Moleskine!

I thought I was going to paint a bit more on this trip but I ended up drawing the whole time. I had recently bought a Micron .01 pen, which made me want to crosshatch and shade in great detail. Funny how supplies dictate in that way.

As I have recently "discovered" that I have a chair series going, I had to draw this chair, found in the lodge at Old Faithful. It is made from branches that were naturally bowed. No lines were straight within the entire chair. I loved it.

This Bison got top billing in these last two posts! This is what I am pictured drawing in the last post. Don't I look studious?
This old bull was huge! He didn't hang out in a family group and was found really close to the walkway at Old Faithful. Because he was so close and intent on eating grass, I sat and drew him for a good half hour or so.
One of the neat things the park service sells as a souvenir is a Parks Passport. I have never bought one, though I thought about it briefly. Instead I have decided to draw images from the parks in my journals and stamp them! Very official.
