Leaves


I love leaves! I pick up many different ones on my morning walk and always wonder how there can be so many different types.

The leaves on the painting are very simple and look a lot like lemon leaves- only they aren't that. They are just doodle leaves that have been "trimmed", just so, in order the full tree gets exactly what it needs.

I've used Prang watercolor for the background, a Sakura white gel pen, and Stabilo fine markers for the bits I colored in.

I used a green Stabilo marker for the shadow and enjoyed taking the time to really give the shadow its place.

This was fun to create!
