Green Palms

5x7 watercolor quick sketches with brush only of palm trees.  Enlarged area right side shows brush strokes using splayed soft bristles. Our monthly assignment on WetCanvas Florals/Botanical forum was to paint palms.  Since I have two synthetic trees in the house for models it was an easy lesson.
