thinking and drawing (badly)


I like to sit and draw with a bottle of ink and a dip pen, a sketchbook, some plants and pencils.  This is a lousy drawing but it was nice to slow down and be quiet; I was thinking about my little trip to Wellfleet with Brenda and Charlie and about the light in Provincetown and on the beach in Eastham.  I was also thinking about marshes.  And birds. 
Something about the photography made this drawing look 45% worse than it does on the page there in my notebook, seen with the naked eye.  Naked eye without glasses.
I could put together a whole show called: Bad Drawings I've Done While Happily Thinking About Plants and Light.
