Flashback Friday: In Central Park Looking Out

Still dreaming of warm days in the park, I wanted to share one of my favorite sketches to date! My Mom and I share this as a favorite view from the park. This one was sketched sitting on one of the huge boulders by the baseball fields in the south west corner of the park, in an hour. I had finished work and was coming through Manhattan at around five, so I decided to take a detour, probably persuaded by the very warm weather we were having (it definitely didn't feel like September yet)! Because of the hour the light was starting to change, so working quickly was a necessity. I was really happy with the result! And, if I'm remembering correctly, I had stopped and bought the white gel pen before starting the sketch, and this was it's inaugural use!
