Drawn from a photo of artist Christina Gusek. I have been reading about and studying Rembrandt and they way he used to dress his models in robes and hats. This is a preliminary drawing in my sketchbook for a painting in the future.

SNOW ON THE SANTIAM PASS

11 1/2" x 16"

#2 Pencil, watercolor and Faber Castell brush in Stillman & Birn Zeta sketchbook

Julie drove her Dad and I back home from Bend, Oregon today and there was plenty of snow on the ground over the Santiam pass. It's a steep winding road and she proved once again what a great driver she is! I don't recommend sketching from the back seat though. Thanks for the wonderful visit Aunt Linda Cofer, Mel, Greg Cofer, Susan Jensen, Diana DeLand and Don.
