After Bark

[laf.art]

I'd been taking photos of bark, came home and drew this

 

[Artyczar]

Wow, that is really intense. And really good!

 

[snoball]

This is amazing and what a great place for hidden pictures!

 

[Iain]

I always expect to find one of Madge Gill's countenances amongst the complexity of lines, like a visitation from Myrninerest!

First time I saw the Rainbow eucalyptus I thought it must be a hoax.

 

[Trier]

How very interesting as a subject and such skillful exection, Lyn !
I like it.

 

[E.J.H.]

And here I was expecting a drawing of a sleeping dog...

 

[laf.art]

Thanks everyone. Iain I don't think I'd ever leave the area where these astonishingly beautiful trees are. I'd certainly never run out of inspiration

 

[Trier]

Incredible trees ! Thank you Iain!
My paint brushes could never come close to what mother nature has done here. The only thing to do is get a marker pen and 'frame' the wonderful abstracts of the bark.
Do they sell seeds of these?

 

[Iain]

The trees only colour up in a warm tropical climate, unfortunately. Seed can be purchased.

Eucalyptus in Portugal. They are invasive there, adding fuel to seasonal wildfires, no doubt.

Tree barks are indeed fascinating. I love the intricacies of your work laf.art.

Iain I had to look Madge Gill up- very glad you mentioned her, quite fascinating. I shall have to spend more time exploring her and Myrninerest

Thanks Bizzi, I absolutely love the patterns and textures of bark, they are always unique and very tactile

 

[Iain]

Pleased to have directed you to a possible interest.
