Bench and hoophouse



          There are certain times when the morning sun catches the poly on the hoop house and lights it up when the rest of the world still seems asleep in the shadows. The trellis over the bench is very dark against the only light in the neighborhood.  For some reason this day it seemed just right to catch a sketch of the scene.  (Actually usually the artist is the issue, not the scene in front of him) Done on 9x 12 paper with a couple markers. Morning and evening are good times to find unusual lighting situations. Nighttime is not bad either; nor is wind and weather of all sorts. It is just a question of how to get a drawing when the paper is blowing into the next county.
