This sketchwalk of trailer parks in Florida,
some of which are now gone, was so much fun to draw!
I had so little time but kept coming back, and sketching fast sketches , here adding shadow with diluted Lexington Grey (waterproof) ink, then finally watercolor.
In this I combined two photos and imaginal plastic flamingo
murder storyline to make my sketch!
*no flamingos were harmed to make this sketch*

That annoying loud-mouth editor/critic in your head? GONE! How great would that be?
I love your “street of trailer homes” sketch especially — it reminds me of the Florida of my youth, and of visits with my grandparents. It’s astounding what a strong sense of place you can create with just a few lines. Bravo!

We still have some trailer homes echoing your sketch. Lovely, like your perspective (bad word) and your flamingos! Happy PPF
