The View from Devou: Drawing for an Etching

Plein Air Study on iPad

Hopefully in the next year I will create a detailed etching of Cincinnati and Covington from the vantage point of Devou Park.

In January I went down to take reference photographs and to make a plain air study to make sure my eye would capture nuances in the moment.

Leap forward to June. Below you can see my progress — I’ve drawn for about 14 hours so far but I still have a lot to go!
