Day one hundred and fifty-two: I started this sketch after breakfast and came back to it a few times between bartering in the market. It’s based on my favorite photo from my hike in the Pisac archeological park yesterday. The guidebook suggests that the Incas were masters at integrating architecture into the mountainous landscape, and I’m inclined to agree. The colors are not nearly as subtle and gorgeous as the real thing, but I am limited in my choice of colors and to what I can muster from my fingertips. I would have liked to work on it more, but I figured I’d better post now while I have Internet access. Next stop: Ollantaytambo. If I don’t post within the next two days, it means I’m off the grid!
why?
