PINES...ELEGANT WRITER PEN

PINES...ELEGANT WRITER PEN, a photo by Louise001 on Flickr.

I created this today, using only THE ELEGANT WRITER PEN...and a brush and water....I usually add Watercolor at this point, but I like it the way it is.
I am thinking so much of the devastation in California and of the beautiful trees that are burning.

I cannot keep from thinking about the acres of beautiful trees that are being burned right now in Yosemite and other places in California and the West, which will always be my home, in my heart.
This is my painting done with Mixed Media...The Elegant Writer Pen and Watercolor.

I have to thank my son for this one...he reminded me how much I like quick sketching...This one was around 30 minutes...and was really fun for me after this long non productive painting period... Just WATERCOLOR & INK...USING MY ELEGANT WRITER PEN...♥♥♥

CONEFLOWERS ON THE LOOSE
I finally painted something at last, and at least!! I dug this out of the trash and figured I could just let ''loose'' with it since it was in my ''possible throwaway bin''....so I tried to go loose and stop myself before I threw in too many details...could have stopped sooner but I was having fun...painting finally!!
