Aristarchus and Vallis Schroteri
Side by Side sketches Deirdre Kelleghan and Jane Houston Jones
Aristarchus region sketched by Deirdre Kelleghan. November 3rd 2006 18:00UT - 18:40 UT. Conte Crayons/ Conte Pastel Pencils/ Prismelo Water Colour Pencil B&W 300gm D R Paper. 200mm Reflector, 8mm TVP, f/6, 150X, Lunation 12.51 days. Bray, Co Wicklow Ireland Temp 2C - Seeing 2 - Average. This sketch was an experiment in pastel and conte greys on black paper. I felt it was a good approach as the media came in colours/grey tones very similar to the lunar surface as I saw it. I enjoy bringing light to a sketch, Aristarchus was glowing and its ray system shot out through the lunarscape announcing its presence. Drawing a 160 km U shaped valley with a pencil seems difficult but if you look closely enough you will delight at how little it appears from this Earth. This was such a satisfactory experiment; I decided it was worth developing further.
