August Greens 2019


During August I try to do an accurate rendering of a "tree-scape" using a combination of media or digital. This year's "AugustGreen" is done mainly with markers, my new pen-style ones from "Arteza", a new online art store that markets just about everything for artists both pro and amateur. This is the view out my studio window in late afternoon, with touches of gold and a multitude of greens. It also features a small spruce tree that was unsuccessfully planted many years ago and has finally toppled over. I often see wildlife in this area such as foxes, rabbits, squirrels, and deer, as well as many species of birds, right in the middle of a big city.

Markers with some white-out and a touch of Photoshop, 3 1/2" x 3 1/2", August 17, 2019.
