Pen and Wash

Summer days lately have been filled with tons of activities from gardening to exercising to trips and grandchildren - all delightful and fun, but resulting in limited time at the art table.

I've been using this spirit of summer to return to some quick pen and washes - enjoying the freedom I feel working on small, informal pieces that can later serve as inspiration for larger works.

These hibiscus were inspired by those in my garden ...

Have a great week!

  4. Thank you all so much. It's been too-long a time since I've done any ink and wash and I am so glad to return to it .. thank you, Kate, for the first class I ever took in pen and wash -- I still enjoy the fruits of that class .. and have also taken up my journaling again --- so thank you for that too!
