Egmont Road.

Today we met in Egmont Village and then went where inspiration took us!

I decided to try a sketch of Mount Taranaki. I find this Mountain extremely challenging to draw. Today it was partially under cloud.

Here is my first attempt:

I then carried on further up the road and had a second attempt:


This one was quite moody as I was almost up under the cloud. The light kept shifting, and the clouds kept changing. So I tried to work very quickly and just get an impression of colour.

Here is a photo of Mount Taranaki. This one was taken from Waitara. It is a lot further away than when I was sketching it on Egmont Road.
