Ants in your pants makes for a quicker and somewhat agrivating sketch. Sometimes with pleasing results. I was out on my bike looking for something to do a watercolor of. Next time I will bring a stool to sit on instead of an ant pile.
I had to avoid fiddling around in my pants when cars were near so they wouldn’t think I was weird or something. I made sure I got those ants that bit me.

Hahahahah Kirby, I had to laugh because I can relate. It seems those are the hazards of painting outdoors!

I had the same experience Sketching the other week, not amusing!
I like the unintended result that it has given the work.
Urgency!!

Some parts dried longer because I was fending off ants. Since this wasn’t totaly dry I endend up clipping it to by gear bag and rode off. It stayed on to my surprise. I was wary it might fall and looked back often to see if it flew off.

Lol. What an adventure. Funny story, and you managed to do a nice landscape.
