Petrie's Barn in water soluble graphite and broadstroke pencil. The scene is from an instructional book that I love, "Drawing Landscapes in Pencil" by Ferdinand Petrie, that I picked up 30 or so years ago 😮

Another visit to Steele Wheels today ❤️ This time I chose a 1934 Gatsby (built in 1984 🙅) and a Daihatsu Trimobile which I don't think corners very well. 😬

East Dover NS. This time I added a shack in the middle, and switched the light so it is coming from the right (west)... so... sunset! 🍷

A couple of sketches of machines and technology... a T-45 power armour helmet from "Fallout" and a F2A Buffalo from WW2. The Buffalo looks like it probably flew like its namesake 😆
