Southern Pines, originally uploaded by Damien DeVille.

Yesterday, I spent the day in Cary, NC at Verizon Business for a day of briefings. Their offices sit on the shores of a man made lake named Lake Crabtree. The views of the lake were very relaxing and appealing. I would like to work in an office that had such views, but I think I might get too distracted. I found myself scribbling very quick sketches in ball point on my note pad of the scrubby pine trees outside. Those sketches served as inspiration for today’s painting.

I used a variety of media in this drawing including Sakura Micron Pen, Pitt Artist Pens, and Derwent Watercolor Pencils.
