"3 Campanulas"
pen & ink with watercolors
May 2013 ~ Utrecht, Netherlands
A little "loose" drawing of the campanulas (bellflowers) which are currently growing in my garden. We've had several days of rain and cold temps again (and more on the way), but the garden is full of new blooms such as the campanulas. I'm still waiting for my peonies to open, though I think they need more sunny days.
If not for the trees and other flowers in bloom, it would be difficult to imagine this is still the month of May - feels and looks more like October!
For the drawing I used:
- Sakura Pigma Micron archival ink pens - sizes .005 & .01
- Winsor & Newton Artists watercolors
- Arches fine grain hot-pressed watercolor paper
tot ziens,
Judy
