Day 282 – Cataract Falls

  

Took a nice walk behind the Sugarlands Visitor Center to Cataract Falls. 

The waterfalls are difficult to draw with water threading over dark black rock. I am going to add some white gouache to the water to see if it perks it up a little. It was drawn with my Noodler Ahab in my S&B Zeta with caran d’ache. 

I could not resist drawing the lady who was there taking pics of it. She had such an intersting stance I could not resist. Then she started talking to me. Scary!! What if she wanted to look?! 

 

 We even photographed a white trillium together. 

 

 There were yellow trillium everywhere along the trail. 

 

 The trail was loaded with flowers and  

  

a small black snake. 

 

 It  wound along by Fighting Creek. 

A lovely easy trail.  

Thanks for looking.

    Whenever I’m caught sketching people I tell them I’m just learning… and close the book… or flip to another drawing of someone else. I can see why you chose to draw her… the smokies are so beautiful in the Spring.
