Finally a little relief from the summer heat and little rain. We could still use more the Village looks a bit greener from the rains in the last two days. Not enough to relieve the drought conditions but enough to bring a well sought drink.

Finished the Ritterstrasse 11 drawing, the first in series based on my trip to Germany, Berlin and Koserow in particular. This one has some creative adaption on my part to make it a possible candidate for print material. A long tall format something I don't usually do. Completed in ink and colored pencil. The remarkable thing about this specific building is the color of the bricks and stone used in it's construction. Some of the coloring is the aging of the building but do note the brick colors. I will include a photo of the building along with my drawing so you can see the detailed coloring.
Fell in love with it at first sight. Ritterstrasse translated is knight street, another reason I loved this building.
