Well, yesterday was a bust! Too many things going on . . . we are in the college application season, after all! I started this yesterday, but couldn't finish it until this afternoon. Sometimes I think it is intersting looking at something colorful that is rendered in black and white. How well do the colors 'translate'? Can you guess that this maple leaf is mostly dark red, with areas of lighter yellow? The challenge in drawing this leaf with a pen is that I am trying to express several different things (contour, color and form) using only black dots. Can you tell the difference between a shady area and a red area? It is not that easy! Still, it makes a nice drawing, don't you think?
