I wanted to try something different, something that was not like any of my other landscape drawings or paintings and came up with this by just letting the water flow pretty much where it wanted, with the exception of adding a few details.

/ February 26, 2011I really like this. One reason is that it is different and creative. The other reason is the 3D effect you have achieved. I imagine this home nestled in the bloom of a flower.

I can see the flower after a bit
Reminds me of surveying in the mountains,being exhausted and looking down on a homestead from a crooked ridge.

/ March 1, 2011I didn’t see the flower till it was pointed out to me. I had never thought of a lily as Leslie mentioned to me. One again, I am glad I brought out a memory for you; a good one I hope. Thank you so much for commenting!
