About the Item
Still Freezing Cold This graphite pencil drawing ‘Marlot – 27-04-23’ follows my previous drawing of Park Arentsburgh. This how it goes, walking to and fro. Going from one spot and back again. The amazing thing is it’s still freaking cold, even at King’s Day. It was freezing in some areas in The Netherlands last night. Consequently I still haven’t sketched outdoors yet this year. Amazing, isn’t it? In Spain temperatures hit a scorching 39 degrees Celsius this week. Here we still face a chilling northern wind. When I look at drawings from the past I see I sketched in nature as early as March. However, weather forecasts are in favor of those who want to dwell outside next coming weeks. Hopefully so! Along the Path This having said, still drawing from my stock of reference pictures. This time Marlot was on the menu once more. My last one depicted the old mansion over there. I remembered I had taken some pictures along the canal that ends in some kind of pond in front of it. This drawing is situated a couple of 100 meters to the left, towards The Hague. During corona times I often dwelled there. That was a welcome deviation from my daily drawing and painting activities, not being able to teach in groups. I was caught by the great lighting on a sunny day in May. The tree line in the back actually is the same as in an earlier drawing of 10 years ago. Overcoming Difficulties I set out on this drawing like I am used to. Simply hatch the paper up with diagonal lines and erase back the lightest parts. See what’s next from there. Soon I figured out I had to change my plans and come out with a better scheme. The thing was that the tree line in the back, being Marlot Forest, wasn’t showing too much contrast. The leaves in the front just weren’t contrasting the trees in the back that much. Where it all boils down to is that I had to crosshatch suggestions of leaves in the trees upfront. Hence the typical hatching disappeared quite a bit. Sometimes that’s what it needs. Working in monochrone hues sometimes it’s difficult to create enough contrasts in different sections. I hope it’ll be enough to distinguish between all intended objects.

- Park Hoog Oostduin – 14-09-22, Drawing, Pencil/Colored Pencil on PaperBy Corne AkkersLocated in Yardley, PAEmbracing Trees This graphite pencil drawing Park Hoog Oostduin – 14-09-22 follows directly after Het Sterrenbos – 12-09-22. Suddenly I found myself embracing the love for drawing trees again. Must be Autumn approacing. Throughout the years I see patterns in my sketching activities. Spring and Autumn by far are the most present in my art works. Some in Summer but the heat can be not pleasant to work in. I also get used to leaves on trees quite quickly. Only to forget how beautiful they are quite rapidly when November arrives. Then they start falling off trees and I often realize I did too few sketching outdoors. Repentance comes after the sin and 4 drooly months will follow until Spring arrives. Here it is, my yearly nature sketching...Category

ABOUT THE ARTIST: Lu Haskew 1921-2009 "Life is good to me. Being able to go to my studio five days weekly and paint for several hours, living in a supportive community, having family and friends who encourage me--all have contributed to helping me become an artist. Being fortunate to study with some of the artists I admire has kept me painting from the garden, people and my favorite things. With the support of galleries, teaching and doing demos, how could I do anything else? My goal is to try to be the best I can be by always being a student, looking for new ideas and stretching my horizons." Upon retirement from a 33-year teaching career, Lu rented a studio in Loveland and began concentrating on her oil and watercolor painting. Learning from artists she had followed and admired throughout the years her painting became a full time career that lasted 17-years. Beginning in 1992, she studied with renowned painters Richard Schmid, Clyde Aspevig, Joyce Pike...Category
