After instructing at the Cobalt Artists Colony, I came home with sketches I had done of various artists at work. What struck me was all the umbrellas dotting the (very hot) landscape. They were colourful and made the artists easy to find when we were on location, but they also presented many problems, as the slightest breeze would send them sailing away. Artists chasing umbrellas became a common sight, as we wandered the abandoned mining sites of Cobalt.
