Bryan Skinnell Art Journal – January 2025

January 9

Pencil drawing of the church cemetery as I was looking out the window before Sunday school class began. Drawn by artist Bryan Skinnell.

Often before Sunday School begins at 10 AM on Sunday mornings, I like to spend a few minutes sitting quietly in class while looking out the window of the room which provides a grand view of our church’s cemetery located across the road. It’s a quaint country cemetery like so many others, quiet and picturesque. I occasionally think about the old timers I have known over the years who are quietly resting there now. This particular Sunday morning, the weather was bright and sunny which made a most excellent view. So much so that I decided the view was worth drawing and remembering. I tried to capture the shades and everything and here it is.
