My family and I had the opportunity to celebrate New Years Eve and Day with relatives in California, and as part of the sightseeing that we did while there, we saw this incredible water mill that seems to jump straight out of a postcard, in a winery called Mill Creek Winery in Healdsburg, CA. We are not wine buffs, but some of you who are, and didn't know about this place, could be one to put in your list to visit.
So of course I had to photograph it with the intention to sketch it later, and just for fun, here's the photo:
NOTE: That day it was raining hard. But when you get only one chance to take the picture, you have to take it. Make lemonade out of a sour wine (or something to that effect).
And here's my sketch:
I use my 1930s Monogram pen to sketch it with Iroshizuku Tsuki-yo, but that's beside the point of this post.
Anyone want to use the photograph to do a sketch in your own style? It'd be fun to see.
