Killing Time in Central Park

The day I signed my contract for my Bryant Park residency, I had gotten tickets to opening night of Midsummer Night's Dream in Central Park. I was stuck with a few hours to kill, where it didn't quite make sense to go home. Naturally, I brought my sketch kit and spent the time doing a couple of sketches in the park and walking around.

I started with a sketch of Gapstow Bridge, which was very close to where I entered the park. It's from a different angle than I caught it from the last time I was sketching in the park, on account of better lighting.

Then I started meandering north in the general direction of the theatre, stopping at Bethesda Terrace so I could do a sketch of the fountain.
