Aug 20 - Knoxville, TN

Today was the only day I was going to be in Knoxville, TN, so I wanted to make the most of it by visiting the Smoky Mountains and getting something specific to the city itself.  I drove out to Cade's Cove in the park and took the recommended scenic drive; did my first practice en plein air sketch with the illustration markers and nabbed a lot of great photos.  Afterward I headed to the city for lunch and more photos . . . and got a great illustration of Knoxville's World's Fair Park and the Sunsphere, which will be in a following post.

As mentioned, here's the sketch:
