On our way to Provence we sometimes stop in Bourgo On our way to Provence we sometimes stop in Bourgogne. Beautiful landscapes and vineyards. Visiting friends makes it even more special. But in winter the climat is damp and we feel it in our old bones. So on to the dry Luberon it is!  #traveljournal #carnetdevoyage #sketchingfrance #bourgogne #urbansketchers #usk #lateliernomade #sketchdaily

50 ways to draw a mountain Cézanne showed us wit 50 ways to draw a mountain  Cézanne showed us with his Mont Sainte-Victoire. These studies from the Luberon were made west of Oppède-le-Vieux. In different seasons and time of day. Moving slightly in any direction changes the light and scenery in interesting ways. Variations and endless possibilities.
Makes me contemplate on a quote by Nadine Gordimer:
“Time is change; we measure its passage by how much things alter.”  #deepmapping #oppede #luberon #lablaque #sketching #traveljournal #luberoncoeurdeprovence #provence #lateliernomade #mapmaking

Have a peek into my sketchbook, where I keep all t Have a peek into my sketchbook, where I keep all the preliminary sketches for the different projects I'm working on. In this case, a map where nature is the protagonist in many forms and ways. Situated in the heart of the Parc Naturel Régional du Luberon in Provence, the domain of the Moulin Saint-Augustin is host to a multitude of rare birds, amphibians, and insects. The Calavon river meanders the grounds of the olive oil mill. Though dry for most part of the year, the river has been the reason for existence for more than a thousand years! And as the ecosystem today shows, not only for men, even more important for animals too. On these pages a study of the great oak and several impressions of the dry river bed of the Calavon.  @moulinsaintaugustin  #sketchbook #provence #luberoncoeurdeprovence #mapmaking #drawing #deepmapping #lateliernomade #oppede

But @lizsteelart made me try it again after seeing her recent work. A few glasses of red wine helped too. ☺️  #illustratedjournal #urbansketchers #moleskinesketchbook #talensecoline #sketchbook #carnetdevoyage #lagontarde #ateliernomade
