Victorian landscape


Going over to Ballarat there are all these wind farms and this is a memory sketch of them.
No point in trying to sketch in a small car that was bumping a bit.
I have done all sorts of things today, mostly cleaning and feel terribly virtuous.
Still tired as I havent stopped, there are some close ups of what I did on my other blog if you want to look. Here.
I forgot my haiku last night and nearly forgot tonight, this one is by Soseki

Over the wintry forest
,
winds howl
in a rage
with no leaves to blow.

Like the sketch Penny and also like the idea of the wind getting in a rage because there are no leaves to blow around.

It is probably cool in Ballarat today.
Those wind-farms, what do you think of them?
Did you drive and sketch at the same time? Haha. Someone was writing in today's Fiji newspaper that a taxi driver had trouble with his lights so drove 80 k without lights (at night) to the horror of the passengers. He mainly tried to tailgate a car in front!

You have managed to portray such a great sense of what this place looks like with only a few lines and 2 colours! I especially like the bottom left corner with the trees and white space around the bottom.
