More of the amazing Tetons. Who even cares what the final sketch looks like when you get to hang out at this beautiful bend in the Snake River, and take some time drinking it all in while you sketch.
We drove up to Yellowstone the next day. Luckily, that means driving across Teton National Park. This spot at Ox Bow Bend Lake is where we stopped and ate our sandwiches at lunchtime.
And as we approached the north end of the park, we were in for a treat.
All I got on my page on location was the drawing in pen. But making mental notes of the colors helped because my photos didn’t capture the purples in the distant hills as I remembered them.

We were there last week, it was much too smokey to get great views, or be outside for very long. Beautiful photos and paintings!

oh that’s so sad. I have been back a little over a week and towards the end of our trip the haze started dulling the view in Yellowstone where we were then…

I love that area, and hope to do some plein air watercolor paintings there myself some time in the future! Love your paintings!

I hope you get to do that soon. All these pieces are just quick sketches done during travels with my family. It would be amazing to go spend longer in the tetons and make more art

Fabulous images! I especially love the way you included your sketchbook in the scene with the Mountain View in the distance. Of course, I always love seeing your brilliant drawings intermingled with photographs of the scenes, wherever you are!
