Sunflower Cart

8.25x5.25 ink continuous line sketch w/ Uniball Vision Elite pen in my grunge junk journal done earlier in the month. This cart of sunflowers was done with the pen never being raised but doing the entire image.  I was riding in a vehicle at the time so it was not easy.  I've used antique staining ink to go over the non-gessoed area of the old book page.

Lovely Lotus Pod

7x5 watercolor and ink line (Micron 01 pen) on Canson 140 lb cold press paper done over the weekend as an ongoing series of plants and flowers in ink surrounded by an abstract colored background.  I really like the lotus seed pod with its many interesting holes and tall grandeur.

January Sunflower

9x7 watercolor and ink line with Micron 01 pen on Canson 140 lb cold press paper done today.  I started it yesterday and it was only a rough ink sketch for this month's floral challenge online.  So decided to add color and this is what resulted, a basically white sunflower and leaves as it is January and cold, and it is surrounded by its promise of sunny days ahead.

Elk Eating

5.25x8.25 charcoal pencil and collage in my grunge junk journal done the last month when we went to the mountains.  The book page is partially gessoed and the collage upper right was leftover Christmas tissue paper I snagged to use for my art.
