Mara Lake Sketches

One of my favourite summer fun things to do is to paddle to the Hyde Mountain Golf Course docks on Mara Lake, B.C. It makes a wonderful reprieve from the waves and a peaceful place to swim. Sketching from the bouncy dock and not worrying about the final picture. The one above was drawn with an Elegant Writer (felt pen) and then used a brush with water. The sketch below is another view painted during an afternoon of boating and swimming with my husband. We were beside a waterski course.
