Brea Hills

Graphite on journal

The snow is still visible from the trail that Ivy and I enjoy and so I took the time today to sketch the view. I notice the view is changing because a housing development has claimed the crest of one of these slopes. If they would have just dropped the houses down below the top of the hill there would still have been a view and would not have ruined the visual impact of these hills. Ah money, that's what its all about. If a community sets its standards around money I find esthetics suffers.

It's been raining here and I have had to draw from my car while waiting for my grandson to get out of school. I love the quiet time. The houses that are tucked in here and there would add a nice color note if I ever paint this.
