Valentines Day

I thought I would do a few Valentines Day cards in my Etsy shop and this is one of them. It is done with pen and ink on Smooth Bristol paper and is 4 x 5.5 inches. I haven't done cards in a long time and it is kind of fun to think up a series that goes together. These ones are all completely different, the only thing they have in common is hearts. The other one in my shop is colored pencil and I am working on one right now that is pen and ink and I think I will fill in with gouache. I have a few other ideas that I need to get on the ball and draw/paint! I should have started sooner and now I am already thinking about other holidays... planning... scheming<--(thank goodness for spell check!!) Okay, back to the drawing table.

Tuscany Rose

One of my favorite roses out of my old yard. The velvetiness (not a word, I know=) and dark red when you see the actual rose is amazing. Nice scent too although very slight. Also done in gouache on watercolor paper. 4.25 x 5.5 I have a picture of my cat Mi-ke that I did in gouache that I will post tomorrow.
