Another page from Scituate harbor done with pen and pan watercolors.
I realized that I hardly ever sketched boats, so last year started to try and capture what I saw around me all summer long. This cat boat had such graceful lines and I realized after I started drawing that the perspective was off - the mast is quite a bit taller.
But the sketch captures a moment in time that I spent really looking at this boat, and I am reminded of a quote that I read somewhere about how the goal of sketching is not an accurate capture (we do have cameras after all), but to really see what we are looking at. That I did.
