Off to Alaska
I didn’t really have a clear idea of what I wanted to accomplish with my sketchbook on this epic adventure. Somehow just document the trip visually. I started out with watercolor pencils, which I found unsatisfying, mainly due to the colors I had with me. I much prefer to dip my brush into my watercolor palette and have a little conversation with the colors.
This set of sketches was done as we traveled I-5 in WA, Hwy 97, known as the Cariboo Hwy, through British Columbia to Dawson Creek, then picking up the Alaska Hwy heading west across BC, into Yukon, then finally reaching Tok, AK, just across the border.
