2025.08.11 Prudhoe Bay – Roadside Campsite, AK

From shiny and road-ready… to Dalton Highway battle-worn.This road doesn’t just eat tires—it leaves its mark.
We’re in #Fairbanks now, and I usually draw wherever we’re camped. But last night we rolled into the KOA late, and the lure of glorious—no, long—hot showers won out.
Still, my heart wasn’t ready to leave the Arctic. I had hoped to camp again at #GalbraithLake or along the river in #Wiseman, but a flat tire and endless mud had other plans. So today’s drawing is from my last Arctic stop—right after my chilly “dip” in the Arctic Ocean—at a quiet pull-out in Prudhoe Bay.

Your drawing arrives in a mat in a glassine bag that fits in a 5″ x 7″ frame. If you’d like your drawing in a double-matted 8″ x 10″ frame, select the option in the pull down menu.
