Little Haye Lake (Original sketch)

This is an original, small, drawing of the Nebraska Sandhills near Little Haye Lake. It is fascinating to think that these are sand dunes covered in grass. This little landscape was created in 20°F weather while sitting in the cab of a pickup truck. I used Blick Art pastel chalks and Prismacolor pencils, then sealed with Polycrylic.

Size: H: 3.5 inches X W: 5.5 inches

My husband loves hunting pheasant here. We recommend bunking down in a little cabin at Lord Ranch near Valentine, NE.
