east overgrown

           
               "East overgrown" is a drawing needing to get done before the spring growth obscures the old house.  I have been thinking this would be a good subject since a couple years ago before I started taking the bike out this way.  It was done on the "Ides of March" as Shakespeare put it. A fitting day, the beginning of spring...The sky was clear, the wind calm at 6: 00 in the evening, and still 70 degrees. There is actually a large pit where there was a full basement under the carport at one time. Looks pretty dangerous now. I suppose there is a varmint  or two freeze dried in the bottom, but I have not ventured a look myself.
               Done with a couple extra fine Sharpies in a 9" x 14" sketch pad. I had forgotten to bring a pencil along, so the Sharpies had to do.

  1. 1706 about on E 1360 Rd- 3rd from corner on south side. Can hardly be seen on street view. Hence the Ides of March drawing. I did not actually plan to do it this day, but it worked out.
