It's been very humid lately and that makes it problematic to draw with pencil. The paper gets soft and you have to bear down more with the pencil. And, I'm getting a little bored with the pencils anyway… so I've been using ink in my en plein-air drawing. And this burnt sienna ink gives the drawing an old fashioned look. So that's kind of fun too. How interesting!

There's a reason for everything, even when there's no reason or when someone is being unreasonable!
