Following on from my experiments with ink and wash, I've decided to try some botanical art. Subjects are easy to find : my garden is blooming. The magnolia little gem has these wonderfully waxy leaves that are rust brown underneath. The flower is a delicate white with a pungent scent.
The frangipani tree is just outside my studio which makes it very handy to draw: just open the window. The tree us still in bloom and lush. In another month, the leaves start to drop. Our flowers are white with a yellow heart. There are those that are pink with yellow hearts.
