It was hard to do a virtual trip to Denali National Park and not sketch some wildlife...so I searched for a reference to work with. This bear looked perfect for sketching quickly. I used watercolors, watercolor pencils, a colored pencil and some gouache in this. Anyway, I'm glad I wasn't up lose and personal with this guy.

Denali National Park
On Saturday I joined the virtual sketchers from the NYC Urban Sketchers. Our hosts and guides brought us to Denali National Park in Alaska. Once again we were provided a website that was full of information and photo references for anything there that you can imagine sketching. I've never visited Alaska but this definitely made me want to go. I started with a photo reference of a landscape with these gorgeous flowers called fireweed in the foreground.
It is hard to think of Alaska without picturing the animals that live there, especially the bears.
I loved this reference. I tried not to overwork it.
