Susan Borgas said...: I can see why Katherine asked for more. It is a lovely panorama and look forward to viewing more drawings by you.; 9:51 pm
Hashi said...: This is really lovely. I especially like the way you've framed it with the foreground.; 10:03 pm
andrea joseph's sketchblog said...: Julie, this is fantastic. i love the colour and wash, but mostly I love the way you have 'signposted' the places in the distance. Great.; 11:12 pm
Karen Sandstrom said...: Love the panorama, Julie. It's beautiful. (It once again reinforces my disdain for the perforations in the Moleskine watercolor, but that's another subject. You did a great job.); 12:25 am
Making A Mark said...: These remind me a bit of the famous Alfred Wainwright's panoramic sketches. Great stuff Julie - and thanks.; 12:51 pm
Julie Oakley said...: Thanks Susan
Hashi, this really was a scene that was 'framed' on both sides which attracted me immediately
Andrea - as a graphic designer in real life I have great faith in the power of text to improve the look of an illustration.
Karen I absolutely agree with you about those ruddy perforations
Katherine, very flattering comparison, but yes I thought the same thing as I was doing it.; 9:12 pm
Alison said...: These are lovely - I love the way the furrows lead the eye back as well as explaining the foreground without filling it up.; 9:52 pm
