The next few posts are going to include sketches of lakes and mountains as for the next part of our holiday in Alberta, we did lots of hikes and walks mostly centred around the beautiful lakes in Banff National Park. If you don’t like sketches of lakes…look away! On our first day in the area we made an early start, loading up the car with tonnes of food for our stay in Canmore. We began with a stop at Bow Lake, where I did this brief sketch…a person passing noted that the trick to sketching in the wind is the clips I use to hold the pages down! We then went on to Peyto Lake, which is a stunning green colour and then drove on to Johnston Canyon for our packed lunch and a hike.
