11X14 Watercolor sketch of this old cytadel " Ghaleh" in center of Iran near Abadeh. Ala prima, plein air. I am haunted by the pleasant peaceful memories of such scenes! The large sage brush is infront. Oh, the smell of sage. You could see the shepherd bringing in his flock of black goats at the distant. It is as if they have been living there for a thousands years. And, in a sence they have been. Nothing is like being there.
