Tennessee River Fog
18"x24"
Charcoal and Pastel
Through-out the year, a couple of artists friends and myself would take a day off and explore various areas of Alabama, Tennessee and Mississippi, taking photographs along the way. We limit our travels to within one hundred miles or so from home. My drawing, Tennessee River Fog, is the result of one of our adventures. As we approached O'Neal Bridge, which spans the Tennessee River at Florence, Alabama, the morning fog was starting to burn off and this barge and tugboat appeared out of the mist. A wonderful sight. After completing the charcoal drawing, I decided to add just a touch of color with soft pastels. I really like the subtle color against the dark background of the bluff.
