Inspired by John Constable’s sky studies, Ralph Reed began drawing one sky each day in 1973. After the first year, he simply kept going.
Ralph draws each sky in his diary using colored pencils. Those drawings become the basis for the Sky Diary paintings, which are hand-painted in acrylic on canvas.
Most skies are drawn from Ralph’s studio in the San Francisco Bay Area, though he brings his diary and pencils wherever he travels.
One sky diary containing twenty-three skies was stolen outside Eli’s Mile High Club in Oakland. The only sky Ralph ever missed was while recovering from jaw surgery.
