Forgotten

Hiking on the Bruce Trail in Owen Sound inspired me to create this piece. I couldn’t resist taking a photo of the overturned wooden boat just off the trial with all the small saplings growing out & around the boat. I used watercolour pencils & blended the colours softly with a watercolour brush. Pen & Ink work (wavy lines) created the bark texture & ink outlines were used on the boat & trees. The ground cover has five layers of colour blended to represent the leaf litter, pine needles etc. Small dashes of the five colours used help to reinforce this as well.
