Leaves From My Sketchbooks. 50. Glen Helen Gorge, West MacDonnell Ranges, Australia
The Australian landscape is a challenge for any artist, especially in black and white with no references such as buildings to give scale. This ordinary looking scene is extraordinary because in outback Australia water is a rare sight. As I drew this my photographer companion was about 30-40 metres up those rock bluffs on the right, carrying camera and tripod to get 'the shot'.
Me, I don't climb. I like to be where I would finish up if I did.
