I spent most of the day working on my banner/sign for the front of the CityArts Coop and have about half of the image completed. The image I am using should be recognizable to those familiar with my body of work since I have used it previously for a charcoal and conte drawing titled Divided & Withering Away. The base photo was taken along the Castle Trail in the Badlands National Park and this was literally the only tree we encountered on the ten or so mile loop hike. I'm really liking how the Bone Black and Titanium White combo is producing an effect very similar in marking and tone to the charcoal and conte drawings I did in the past. For tomorrow (and possibly beyond), I still have most of the middle-ground grass and all the foreground grass to complete, as well as the two figures and the tree before I can call it complete and begin to add the lettering.
