On the Placer River, Alaska


This is a sketch I did back in June, on my first trip to Homer. I set up by the river just before the day got warm enough for the mosquitoes to turn out, and I had not put on enough bug dope. Later I counted over 40 punctures on my left wrist alone! I was a bit distracted to say the least, and set the painting aside to polish up later. Just now got round to it.

This is just one of many peaks that don't get named on the map in the Alaska atlas.
