Pieces for the Studio Show

This this the Yucca pod drawing, that I listed a couple of weeks ago, finished.
Pastel and metal leaf on paper
22 x 33"
Here too is a new drawing of what I like to call a lantern tree. It isn't actually called that, I think the tree proper name of the tree is Bladder Berry, but lantern tree is more well - romantic.
It is also 22 x 33"
Pastel on paper.

O.K. it's been awhile since my last post. But here is the product of that absent time.
This is, hopefully, one of a series of four, as I am starting to reintegrate color into my work.
