Here is my last sketch done at Mount Purro Nature Reserve. See if you can spot the statue of mother Mary. I struggled with getting the texture of the thatched roofing in this, but in the end this was the sketch I was most satisfied with.

Here is another sketch done at Mount Purro Nature Reserve. After our little trek up the mountain we chilled out in little thatched cabana’s by the pool, enjoying all the greenery and the fresh breeze. At the time I felt this drawing didn’t work out well – things don’t seem to be in the right place. But it’s growing on me.

On Sunday we took a day trip out of Manila to get some fresh air and absorb a bit of nature at Mount Purro Nature Reserve. As soon as we got there we joined a guided trek up the mountain – this is the view we had when we got to the top after an hour of sweaty walking. Apparently the peak is named after Toto Malvar who works with the indigenous Dumagat tribes on grassroots reforestation and watershed rehabilitation.
