Mt. Shuksan Reflected

Colored Pencil
Taken from Photograph “Mt. Shusksan from Picture Lake, Mt.
Baker National Forest,” by John Hendrickson, in Pacific NorthWest Calendar, Avalanche
Publishing, 2012.
I free handed this drawing from a calendar my Mom purchased. Mt.
Shuksan is in North Cascades National Park. Drawing the reflection was
challenging, but it turned out great. Drawing realistic water is also difficult.
I blended two colors of blue in addition to the colors of the reflection and brown near the shore. True
blue and indigo blue.
Amazing reflection 😊 I wish I lived closer so we could have our own art class!
