I found this holey tree trunk on a recent hike and I loved the rich, earthy colors and the many holes and craggly bits. I snapped a photo to create from later.
Back in the studio, I made an ink sketch on watercolor paper, then washed in loose watercolors.
After the watercolor dried, I decided to add the final touches with colored pencils, but the piece sat on my art table for a week or more.
I finally brought it to the breakfast table and finished it with Prismacolor colored pencils while I sipped tea.
Art can be very portable -- you can create as you eat a meal, talk with a friend, or listen to a podcast. You only need for your hand to follow your eye.
Where would you like to take your art?
