#ArtAdventCalendar Day 14 - I try to stretch my neurons every now and then, setting down the camera and picking up a pencil or brush. My skill with drawing is definitely at the beginner level, but I feel it's important to do every now and then: aside from the technical aspects it helps me focus on--like texture, contrast, line, shape--it reminds me that my art doesn't always need to look like a photograph (that's what photography is for).

Two images side by side--a photo in black and white on the left, taken at the top of a long wooden stair case leading down into the river valley below, in the winter time. The stairs are crusted with snow. At the bottom of the stairs you can just make out a jogger on the walking trail. Beyond and surrounding the stairs and trail are trees stretching interspersed with open white park space. Beyond that, a glimpse of the frozen river; along the horizon, the south banks/cliffs of the river valley topped with buildings. The image on the right is a pencil sketch of the same.
