Place to stay long ago.
Back when a wilderness
to escape to
wasn’t so far
away.

The black and white reference photo for this sketch was from a family album taken by some family member, way before I was born. Well maybe not “way”.
The caption under the photo noted the car as a 1947 Chevy.
9”x 9” ink and watercolor

  1. Ah, so poignant! This strongly reminds me of my Father's old Austin Seven. Much of my childhood was spent travelling around in it's back seat.
    Yes, we once had wildernesses similar to these to escape to. Now, they are few and far between!
    This is wonderfully evocative.
    Thank you so much.😊😊

    1. Yes there used to be more places like this, on the edges of a larger world.
      Thank you
