| Doves & Grapes, watercolor & graphite on Rives BFK, 11 x 11", 2013. |
My housemate, Sara, recently got married, and I made a drawing as a wedding gift.
I was inspired my Audubon's paintings in The Birds of America. I own a huge copy; it's one of the best gifts I've ever received. I was also inspired by looking out my window; it overlooks a courtyard full of grapevines.
Here's a look with the frame and lettering:
I hope everyone's enjoying their summer. There's been a lot of hot weather and thunderstorms here!
That's a beautiful illustration and such a great idea for a gift!
ReplyDeleteI bet they love it, it's beautiful! I especially like that you used variations of just three colours; it holds it together so well :)
