it was only blocking the Scenic Views. For example,this pine tree was across the street from an overlook. Gee, thanks, fog. That tree was really fascinating:
The Quilt Garden, a sliver of it, at the NC Arboretum, was unbefogged:
The fog was beginning to roll in just as I started this and it came in full blast before I could finish. But just so you can see my 
good intentions:
What great comments, thank you! Mary, it would be fun to have a big group sketching session, I agree! Nancy, I paint the colors on site. Valerie, Victoria, Nancy, Terri and Cin, thank you, thank you for taking the time to write your thoughts. So appreciated.

Oh, how much I adore these sketches! They reminded me of a morning walk around a town where my grandmother lives.

Wonderful stuff as ever. I love the fog especially (and that devilish expression on one of the cherubs).

loving all your trip sketches, I've seen documentaries on The Biltmore, what a wonderful place to visit and draw!

I love the quick sketches too, particularly the one of the view with the tree in the foreground and the mountains behind. Inspirational as usual. Thanks Laura!
