Sketchbook Project – Douglas Fir Bark

Pages Seventeen and Eighteen:

Two views, photos and a scan of the photo, scatchboard sketch and rubbing of Douglas Fir Bark. This was a tough rubbing because the bark was so rough, but it really formed the paper onto the damp trunk and made it almost sculptural. This is the same bark and tree that the cover was designed to represent. You can see the cut paper cover HERE.

There’s more Northwest Winter Textures to come.

Left brain, right brain, I can't decide. After many years of successful visual arts pursuits, I'm working on my other creative inclinations. For the past 8 years, writing has been my second full time job, and it's worth every sleepless night. Sheri J. Kennedy grew up mostly a city-girl coasthopping from Seattle to rural Pennsylvania, Miami and back to Seattle. She currently resides on the banks of the Snoqualmie River in the scenic Cascade Mountains. Her heart has found its home.
