Observations

In a giant 16" x 20" Aquabee sketch pad, I have been tracking the pattern of sunlight on the water since the beginning of our trip. Either early morning or late evening, when the light is slanting toward me, I make these value sketches. Too many cloudy days have limited their number, but they still intrigue me.

They feel like an inkblot test. And, like inkblot tests, they invite the viewer to attach meaning to their images. You tell me what you see and I tell you what it tells me about you.

On second thought, better not tell me what you see. My license to practice is long expired!
