Thursday Sketch

The sketch for this little painting was done in my wonderful little sketch journal on handmade paper during our recent camping trip. Today I filled in some color. The birds were actually swallows, but I made them bluebirds so that they'd stand out from the rest of the grey-brown of the painting.

Note the neon green fishing lure on the branches; Matthias was not pleased to have to leave it behind.
