New Color Sketch - Some Trees in Orange

I thought I should put a little bit of color in with the other drawings. This marker and color pencil sketch of trees is loosely based on a scene I photographed near a farm in Orange. The mountains and colors are pure fantasy. Click for a larger view.

Water - Plants - Sky

I took a little hike up by the reservoir a few days ago and took some close up shots of trees and plants near the water. The reflections of trees in the flooded areas, was very cool. Lots of frogs and other critters were out singing. Got a few good ideas for some paintings.
