Back to Cave Creek

This is the last page the Arizona travel sketchbook. Returning to Cave Creek after a week in Sedona, for a walk up the trails through Spur Cross.

If you love to run, as I used to, and would like to support the town of Cave Creek in preserving their open space from urban expansion, you might consider participating in the Cave Creek Trail Run on March 26th.

Airport Loop Trail - Looking Back

Walking the Airport Loop Trail again through pencil and watercolors, as I look back over my days in Sedona. 

Wilson Canyon Trail

Walking up Wilson Canyon Trail at the end of the day, accompanied by long shadows. The bridge at the trailhead where 89A crosses the canyon is yet another dynamic view worth seeing.

A view of the workspace

Still employing that old piece of aluminum foil as a palette -
it lends a wonderful array of pre-mixed colors.
