day 10: “above” one day in may of 2025, I laid on a park bench & sketched the view above me. (this repost challenge has been fun as it allows me to share more of my nature & urban sketches versus my typical abstractions ☺️) #artrepostjuly #artchallenge #art #arttherapy #watercolor

It wasn’t until the end of my coastal day trip last week that I realized everywhere I went this day was haunted 👀 Anyway, I’m back on my side of the country with the usual, expected hauntings now… I’d love to go back, just to feel a faint breeze in the air 🥹 #arttherapy #nature

“…Usually dependable, but at times, deceptive.”
