Arctic Ice Sno-Cone Stand

Arctic Ice Sno-Cone Stand ©2015 Steve Penberthy Watercolor & Sharpie pen in Moleskine sketchbook 5" x 16.5" (13 x 42 cm)
Sketched on location in Creve Coeur Lake Park, Maryland Heights, MO USA.  Creve Coeur Lake is the largest natural lake in Missouri.  I sketched this scene of the Arctic Ice Sno-Cone Stand while sitting at a picnic table across the bike trail from the little sno-cone stand.  The park was busy with people riding their bikes, running, walking (both for exercise and walking their dogs), people sailing on the lake, and people fishing.  The snow-cone stand had lots of customers while I sketched; the warm and humid afternoon lent itself to indulging in a cold, sweet treat.
