Total eclipse with my sister

In Designs, Travels and events by Roger Thomas

Arthur and I joined my only sister, Jane Sturdivant, her husband Peter and her son and daughter-in-law, Christopher and Caitlin Nielson, for the total eclipse on our family farm at River Grove near Sun Valley, Idaho.
I’m pleased to share some sketches from a few days of drawing in Jane’s colorful, exquisite gardens (photos below the drawings) before the solar event: Warm sun to chilling shade and eerie, memorable visuals.
