A Serious Game of Chess

We spent a long and wonderful weekend in a remote part of Yavapai County, Arizona. Our nephew and his bride were married at ranch where many of us could camp and reconnect with each other over the course of three days. Playing games together is a big part of our traditions together and I was glad to capture three cousins at a serious game of chess.

A Conversation

Conversations are another major feature of our reunions and I was glad to get this quick sketch of two of the uncles as they sat on a bench together.

And here are two sketches made from the passenger seat of our camper. The first is near Salome Arizona on our way there and the second from Peeples Valley on our return.

All of these sketches were very quickly made and are still underdeveloped.  I like them because they capture an impression of the weekend. I have a two more sketches from the weekend that I plan to develop more fully later this week.
