This small etching, Sketch in La Roche, is by David Young Cameron. It depicts a scene in La Roche with delicate lines and subtle shading. I love the way the artist has used etching to capture the light filtering through the buildings and trees. There’s a sense of intimacy, like we're peeking into a quiet moment in this town. It's so cool to think about Cameron, probably standing on a street corner with his etching tools, carefully rendering the architectural details and the bustling energy of the street into those tiny marks. The whole thing feels like a memory, or a fleeting impression. Maybe this print reminds me that art, in any form, is just one big conversation, with each artist adding their voice to the mix.
