View of Lake Tekapo, coloured pencil on paper, January 2026

This is based on a photo I took when I visited Lake Tekapo when I was last in New Zealand in 2017. Done using 2 coloured pencils and a blender to see what I could with limited resources.

This is really cool! I especially love the details on the rocks.

Thanks! I was a bit nervous since this is the first time I've shown my art to anyone other than friends and family, so I'm glad you like it.

I like the detail in the rocks, too. Comparing the closer area to the further shore line gives it good perspective. I'm trying to figure that out myself. I think you did well.
