An Abstract View

Posted on May 10, 2016 | 28 Comments

In May, we start packing up our car and heading to the lake on the weekends.  I thought you might enjoy seeing some of our views from our drive to the lake – in an abstract way!

In the Spring, the wild Lupines grow in the meadows in shades of blue and purple:

As the days get longer and summer arrives, so do fields of daisies and purple wild flowers:

In the fall, the cattails appear growing in a marsh area next to the highway:

I hope you enjoyed the drive!  I’d like to explore these small abstracts in greater detail.  These were done on 6 x 4.5 inch hot press watercolor paper with Neocolor water-soluble crayons.

Happy Exploring!  🙂

    A beautiful collection of interpretations. Weekends at the lake should fuel lots of creative thought! Have a fun Jill.

    I love the top one of the mountains and lake, and the Lupines!

    I’m looking forward to more of your abstracts from the lake.
