Detail:
I really enjoy drawing in pen. Unlike drawing in pencil, you cannot erase your mistakes - you have to reshape them and just make it work. It leaves so many possibilities for the outcome of the artwork. By adding color to the focal point of the drawing it not only draws the eyes closer but creates a dichotomy between the subject of the drawing and its background. The subject almost seems to come alive on the paper.
‘Ginkgo Path’ measures 9 x 12 inches and is done on environmentally friendly, Strathmore Windpower Series; 30% post-consumer fiber and acid free. It is available to purchase in my Etsy shop, Makepeace Arts, for $80.00.

Beautiful! My daughter and I planted a Ginkgo tree. Don't know if it will make it through the cold winters, but it'll be fun to watch if it grows.
