Another Autumnal post, this time a garden tree I pass on the way to work. My eye was caught by the way the tree was losing leaves from the top down, revealing a branching structure that closely matches the vein pattern of the leaves, and seed pods that look like early Christmas baubles! (A fine-tipped ink-brush was perfect for the gradually tapering branches).
Lexington grey in Kuretake #40 brush-pen, water-colour, A5 – one hour
One hour….so good!! and it does resemble a xmas tree….
Thanks Rebecca, half-an-hour on site for the line work, and another half-hour at home for the shading and colour and to add all the really tiny branches! Ed
I really love this one, Ed. Beautifully done.
Thanks Sherry. Not sure if it qualifies as a sketch though… Ed
