A View of the Arroyo

Here is a scene of the Arroyo Seco from the Colorado Street Bridge. The Vista del Arroyo is in the background. On the left are some historic bungalows. At the bottom right is a beautiful new condominium designed to look like an Italian piazza. I did a quick sketch of the scene in my Aquabee sketchbook using pen and ink and blocked out the major shapes, punching up the colors slightly and emphasizing the light and shadows.
