North Sea From Train



North Sea From Train

Thinking about gulls,
ruins in forest islands
between stone wall
enclosed fields,
the North Sea.
A train ride to and back
between Edinburgh and London
a few weeks ago.

Too lazy to take photos of the flashing imagery. Deciding I’d invent some images from memory or whatever the fountain pen perceived from the fragile connection it has with my brain.
A thumbnail sketch, an initial attempt. Will use paper that accepts watercolor the next time I have this urge.
11”x 9”

Fountain Pen: Platinum Carbon extra fine point

  1. That fragile connection is a train ride in itself. . . . Still enjoying the drawings that arise during your stay there. . . .

    1. Yes, so true. Must admit, I do enjoy the train.. Enjoy your daily posts too. Receive as emails these day. Haven’t found a convenient way to respond.
      Thank you.
