2 wreaths

I’ve grown fond of drawing wreaths.

When I draw foliage and other leafy things, I’m forced to attend not only to the positive light space, but to the dark shadow-parts in between. My eye endlessly enjoys all of the little intermingling darks and lights which the technical pen can make.

Here are two cards from last Christmas.

Enjoy your weekend, everyone. 🙂

  1. Yes — those have great contrasts. You’re right about leaves. Flowers just aren’t as nice without at least one leaf to frame them. Leaves don’t get nearly enough credit. 🙂

    Nice pose, Shirley. Have a great week,
