When I was taking a walk the other day I spotted these very nicely painted and landscaped pipes at the entrance to the driveway to the new two-story Target store in Albany. I sat on a fire hydrant alongside the road and drew them in my watercolor Moleskine notebook. I finally added watercolor tonight to the original drawing but wasn’t happy with it so did this second version in my notebook. I might do a half-sheet painting of it too…there’s something about the image that I really like. It’s all so nicely organized.

Great job on this. You are right, there is something so interesting about this. Isn’t it funny how some things just grab us!

I like this very much. I also would like to see the one you did first and didn’t like. I think it would teach me something about how an artist’s idea evolve. And it teaches me that you don’t have to get it right the first time.

I love this drawing! Isn´t it cool to draw stuff like this – things you normally don´t really notice, and never cared to look at properly. Love the colors too, and your eye for details.
