This is technically not in my sketchbook but it’s definitely a sketch. More specifically a color study of treetops. In the forest behind our house there’s a steep slope down to a river, and when you’re standing at the top, the treetops from the trees going down the slope are basically in head hight, and when the light from the sunset hits them it’s really beautiful. So here i was just trying to hit the color notes without caring about the detail or really the forms in general. This one is in gouache.
have a sketchbook where i write, draw and paint things that happen in my life. I will share some of those pictures here. All the paintings and drawings are around 15 x 12cm, so they are very small. When doing these small pictures i usually like to do as much as possible with as little as possible. So few brushstrokes, broken color, simple shapes and very little to no detail.
