Algonquin Thoughts...

This last weekend I was in Algonquin Park.
Winter still has a grip there, frozen lakes, snow in the shade hardly any 'Spring growth' to be seen.

As I stood at a favourite spot , looking across the frozen landscape to the old spruce across the way an image was forming in my head.
Later back in the warmth of my airbnb retreat in Whitney, a tea at hand, I put that thought down in my Stillman and Birn Nova series coloured paper sketchbook using a white charcoal pencil and my new Staetler black pencils...
