Morning Light, Old Campus


When I got back to Bloomington, after my trip to Canada last summer, I wanted to keep up the practice of landscape sketching that I had started in Toronto, so I would walk or bike over to the Indiana University campus and draw. After a few days of sketching I found a particular bench that had views that I liked, by a path in the old campus area, and would go there. Most of the time I would go either at sunset, or at the beginning of the day. This sketch shows the morning light that day, coming up on the edge of Dunn's Woods on old campus. It was a challenge to make that quickly changing light arrange into coherent patterns in the drawing.
