This Old Sketch Pad

Found this old pad with some drawings in it. One was from a trip I made to the Cloisters, years ago. A building can be seen across the Hudson River at that location. It is on part of the 700 acres that Rockefeller donated so that the view from this museum would remain unsullied. It is a pretty sight. The pad is small and an odd format as it is a section of a larger sketch pad I cut off with a shop knife. I think I used a white grease pencil with Prisma pencils for the color. As it turns out, I like this museum a lot. Last year, while on one of my visits, I got this shot with my snappy. It was taken about a quarter of a mile north and at a slightly higher elevation to where I made the sketch 17 years earlier.
