Given this special ‘number day’ in September, I had to sketch something so I’d remember where I was. Sketch I did, I just didn’t finish this page until yesterday 🙂
We had these plants all over our lot when we built our NY home. I remember how amazed I was at softness of the leaves – just like velvet……duh 🙂 But, I was even more amazed to learn that the seeds can remain viable for 50 years!
I don't think I have ever seen Velvet leaf . . . The seed pod looks familiar though. I will have to ask my mom. Leaves still on the trees but by weekend I think they will all be gone. Beautiful sketch, love the blue crab and knowing how you did it with racing paper etc..
Thanks, Rhonda! Happy to say the Blue Crabs found lots of new homes 🙂
Beautiful work on the calligraphy! It adds so much to the sketches and you do it so well. Glad the show went well and everyone left with blue crabs 🙂 hee hee
Thanks Lisa 🙂
Look at your calligraphy!! Really nice Pam!
