Petals - Queen Anne's Lace

8x10” original art, unframed

One-continuous-line drawing with ink on 300 lb thick cotton Arches watercolor paper, hand deckled.

Original art and design by Camille Moore

Queen Anne’s Lace grows wild in our area and look beautiful in bouquets. They are an invasive plant, so instead of growing them, I just admire them along the countryside.

For one-line-drawing, I usually start in the lower left-hand corner and I do not pick up my pen until I’m finished. I do not pre-draw or sketch first. My goal is to invoke the feeling of the flowers, and not try to meticulously copy the flower. After I made the drawings, I embellished some with a few more details .. yes I gild the lily!

I hope you will enjoy your stroll through my garden, as I show you some of my favorite flowers.

Enjoy!
