Crystal Forest Trail, Petrified Forest National Park, AZ – 18H x 24W inches soft pastels on paper.
Silent reverence for geologic history, Petrified Forest National Park, Crystal Forest Trail AZ USA. Not a whole lot more to draw here! The land is barren except for desert grass and the odd tumbleweed. This was once a lush forest, and dinosaurs roamed here. It was February, but I bet this place looks the same in July. The silence was layered with dry grasses in the breeze, ravens’ calls, and my imagination.
I had never seen a tumbleweed up close before, so since I hadn’t seen any traffic or other people for about an hour, I hopped out of the car to take photos of one in the middle of the road before it blew away. Satisfied with the takes, I got up off the road and a bus was right there 25 ft. away, waiting for me to finish. I don’t know how long the bus was there, but was thankful the driver didn’t honk… and more thankful that he saw me.

Fruit Bats, Adelaide Botanic Gardens, South Australia – 18H x 24W inches soft pastels on paper.
One of my most memorable and favorite experiences of all time was seeing what we initially thought were pinecones until they started moving – the thousands of fruit bats in the pine trees at Adelaide Botanic Gardens, located within the city limits. On a very hot summer day at sunset we sat and watched them fly low across the river, while skimming their bodies into the water, then fly back to a tree, settle on a branch and lick the water off their fur.
