An 8x10 pastel. One has to remain simple at 8x10. Fortunately the original looks better than the photo image.
Macfarlane writes, "It is true that I remember the terrains over which I have walked barefoot differently, if not necessarily better, than those I have walked shod. I recall them chiefly as textures, sensations, resistances, planes and slopes: the tactile details of a landscape that often pass unnoticed."
I am working with my barefoot eyes.

Besides your memorable eye for landscape (no matter where it is), I admire your reading list, and I look forward to your book reports.
This latest one, this Robert MacFarlane, will be added to my own bookshelf. It definitely strikes a chord in this life-long walker. And fellow islomaniac.
Sam, You will love Macfarlane. I copied his bibliography in this book, a treasure trove, and intend to read his other books.
