305. Farm Scene

Watercolour pencil on paper, 2006. Re-edit November 2008.

This is an imaginary scene inspired by the sunset drive home from my grandparents’ farm. I love that place so much. I used to get to visit there every weekend, as it was just outside my hometown, but these days it’s a 2 hour drive away. We try to get there at least every Christmas, which is the time I drew this illustration.

301. Dairy Farm Land

Photo, Nikon D40 DSLR, June 2008.

Taken en route to Leongatha from Inverloch. My husband was driving so I just pointed the camera at the scenery to see what I would find!
