Here’s the last of my Eryri sketches, as we left the mountains on our journey back to the coast and Caernarfon. This vista had an extraordinary bright torrent of waterfall tumbling down the dark rocks, set against a strangely gleaming sky. Husb recorded this short film of me drawing on the little steam train – you can just see me in the reflection in the window. It was a great day out, sketching the chaotic weather from the comfort of the tiny train.
I had been struggling to find a medium and subject that suited my black paper sketchbook and these Sennelier and Daler Rowney soft pastels and the rugged mountains of Eryri are just perfect for it.
