Thanks for the invitation to participate. I am very excited to be a part of this blog.
This page in my journal happened because I was too nervous to hike all the way to the top of Telescope Peak in Death Valley. My adventure loving husband and my sister went on to the top and I had a rare opportunity to sit in a beautiful place and take the time to really observe what was around me. It took about an hour and a half for the sister and husband to get to the top and come back and pick me up. Normally I don't have time to sit outside and draw. I usually draw from reference materials and then spend a lot of time in front of my computer manipulating my images, so it was great to be a part of such a beautiful place for a short time.
