The Sense of Something


This morning I found myself under a bridge looking at the Hoosic River.  Fortunately I brought along some charcoal and a drawing pad so I proceeded to draw.

I've been reading the words of painter Ken Howard from his book Ken Howard's Switzerland: In the Footsteps of Turner:  "Painting is about getting the sense of something and you achieve this by absorbing how it actually works in nature."
