Pine Study 05 - ink on paper 18x12

In this study, I added a pine cone - something I haven't done for years.  It's like renewing old friendships.

I added color to an ink study of two palm trees and the scrub cedars on the marsh. Study was done quickly for effect not detail. I like the effect, so I signed and dated the pieces.

Palm Tree Study


Ink on Sumi Paper - 11x16
