Cabin Drawing in Pencil

My business and website is called Cabin Art or Cabinart. This is because when I began, I lived in a cabin and I drew cabins.

I still live in a cabin (part time) and still draw them.

Here is the latest commissioned pencil drawing of a Mineral King cabin:

After seeing the Hume Lake cabin drawing from 1995 and reworking it, you can bet your boots that I was hyper-careful while working on this drawing. The photos were mine from 2 different photography sessions, there was much conversation about what should and shouldn’t appear, I used multiple photos to be certain of what I was seeing, and I went over the entire drawing with a magnifying glass at the end. In another 22 years, I don’t expect I will be able to repair or improve this one.

  1. How did you get the colored flag in there?

    • Colored pencils, Gina!

  2. Great drawing, Jana. I’m sure your customer will be very happy — and I know that will make you happy, too! 🙂 Wish I had time to look more carefully at some of the wildflowers you posted in previous posts and try to help you figure out what they are. Love wildflowers!

    • Cheryl, thank you for checking in. . . and stay tuned for the customer’s response about the drawing. Feel free to scroll back through my wildflower posts – I obsessed on them all summer long! Fun to hear from you!
