Colonel Danforth Park

I went out landscape painting with Don this Sunday. We went to Colonel Danforth Park in Scarborough, through which the Highland Creek makes its way to Lake Ontario. I have a few painting from that park and of that creek, but I think this one really captures the colours you can see in it on a nice sunny day.

I didn’t have a particularly good drawing night yesterday. This one was my best. Esther was the model.

I spent some time working on Sunday’s TSA drawing. I evened out the values and turned the form.
