Midnight at the Oasis

22x15 watercolor and wax crayon on 140 lb Saunders Waterford cold press paper painted in 2006.  The camels were drawn using a tiny toy wooden carved camel and background made up.  I sold reproduction rights to a card company and had not ever posted this online or on the blog.  No sign of the three wise men.

This is fun and beautiful.
I like your sketches in the old books. You have such a variety of methods and surfaces. I’m smiling.
