We recently spent time in Little Deer island, Maine. Staying at our friend Michael Snow’s family home, I decided to draw it. I listened to the sounds of cormorants and loons as I sketched on the rocks by the shore of the cove. A river Otto popped out of the rocks inches from my feet. We scared the hell out of each other. I moved closer to the house to do this drawing so I didn’t scare any more animals. I can assure you the mosquitos weren’t afraid of me. My first urban sketch in a long time.
