This is an old crooked evergreen on the final hole.  It’s December and I can’t believe that there is no snow this year.  It was warm enough to draw with the I Pad though I don’t like to spend too long with it as I am afraid the battery will freeze or the cold weather will shorten the life of it.

It’s mid December and the river hasn’t frozen yet let alone little to no snow.  It was still cold, but still unseasonable for Dec.

A wonderful illustrator whose work is rich in texture but at the same time very bold and graphical something rarely combined…and successful!

This is an I PAD sketch of the outside view…

This is a nice little pub, Dominion on Queens, on Queen Street East in Corktown neighborhood of Toronto near my friend Eugene’s place.  I like this pub as it’s very intimate and cozy and they actually have very good soup.

On election day, I decided to treat myself and go up for a hike on Table Rock in South Carolina.  This is one of the more popular places to hike in the upstate, but on a Tuesday afternoon I found very few people.  It’s a beautiful place but its a rigorous hike up as you seem to climb rocky step after rocky step.  Unfortunately there is graffiti on the rocks but the hike does weed out the lazy vandals.

I did a water color sketch nearly 2 years earlier…

This is Matthews Creek, right outside my place…

Blue Ridge Parkway looking east

And the parkway looking west

I forgot what this mountain is called but you can see it clearly from the parkway lookout.

This was from the back deck as the sun was setting low some where around 8pm.
