Sketch of Chimneys in Northern Ireland


Sketch of Chimneys in Northern Ireland
Originally uploaded by randubnick.

Mel returned from Northern Ireland today with many suitcases. It was nice to be reunited with Mel, and as a bonus, reunited with some art work that I did during my visits to Northern Ireland, which he brought back in his suitcase. This is a little sketch of houses in a row with those wonderful chimneys connecting them. I saw houses like this everywhere, so finally used pastel sticks to sketch this from memory, thinking about a scene in Bangor, Northern Ireland, on a day when it was way too cold to stop and take a decent photograph. Today I took a digital photo of the sketch, and did some minor cropping and editing in Painter IX to repair wear and tear of travel.
