Donar’s Sketchbook

Golfer’s Lane

This is a path that leads through the golf course to the main resort.  I often jog,hike and walk through it all season.  Fall is one short moment that you can capture the exciting change.  I went out with water colors to sketch on location, then I decided to try a digital painting based on the raw colors I captured a few weeks ago.  There something about standing in one place for an hour to absorb all the environment, light and color as opposed to taking a quick photograph.  The eye is still the best camera out there and I think I did a decent job in preserving that freshness in the final version.
