Description
I'm starting a whole new series I call, "Backyard Biking," which is a daily ride with me - on my bike - as I pause for a moment and make a quick sketch - in my sketch book - of whatever captures my interest - in my own backyard. I don't have to go any further than my own backyard - or right around the corner - to find interesting things to sketch. It's fun for me to make a quick sketch of what I see and capture the moment on paper - then share it with you. Today I biked to "Howell Creek Trestle," a wonderful railroad-to-trail conversion right down the street. You can still see some of the old railroad markers and of course the really cool train trestle spanning the creek. The trestle goes over a quick-moving creek that weaves and cuts through sleepy residential neighborhoods. The trestle is a great vantage point to look down at the creek below - or sit down and take a quick breather - or like me - get off my bike - set up my easel - and make a quick sketch. Today, the sky was Easter egg blue. Not a cloud in the sky. This is late summer, so the trees are that really deep green color, but the sun is illuminating some of them so brightly - some appear to be lime green or bright yellow. Everyone was out-and-about. Lots of walkers, joggers, bicyclists, and someone riding what appears to be a combination of a bicycle and Nordic Trac. It looked like lots of fun. A perfect day for "Backyard Biking." Stay tuned for my next adventure!
