    Fantastic! The rocks are amazing, as is your art; love the water soluble pencil and WC combo. It’s great to see someone appreciate nature in their art, and to be able to hear the waves is a real plus. Your travel easel is impressive, as is your trailer rig, haha. Enjoyable video, Marty!

      Thank you very much. I discovered that wc pencil combo from James Gurney. I had used water-soluble graphite, but it was messy, this seems to work better. Thanks for mentioning the camper - It's an older one, but it works great for 2 people. 🙂

    I love the easel setup. I have one myself and it is the best I have come across. Great setting, great work! Thanks Marty.

      Thank you Thomas. I like this U Go sketch easel set up. I might add a camera holder as James Gurney has on his custom set up. 🙂

    I am terrible about posting comments. I watch on the tv and forget to go back & comment. Trying some catchup. Sunrises are always my favorite. Sunrises over the ocean is the universe's Xanax. Craggy rocks, cliffs etc. are #2 on my list of the things I want to learn to paint. This was fantastic.

      Perfect.
      Thanks for the comments and for watching. This was an awesome trip and I loved sketching on Lake Superior. More from that trip is coming. ;-)
      Have a great week.

      Hi Denise - Where abouts on the Canadian side? I was in Wawa not too many years ago and also a few other great towns on Superior. Loved Canada and the people I met on that trip. Lived in Montreal for 2 years when I was a kid. Absolutely LOVED it there.

      @@owingsart We spent a few days on a road trip between Sault Ste Marie and Nipigon. Wawa was one of our stops. We love that part of the country. We currently live in southern Ontario but may spend more vacations there.

      That’s so cool. Here’s an episode from our trip. We met these great guys from Labrador that were traversing the entire length of Canada.
