This illustration by Emiliano Ponzi (in the Nov.5 edition of the
New Yorker) was the only thing I wanted to look at today. I just love everything about it (but especially the colors and the way the mountains are so simply but believably rendered), so I tore it out and propped it up on the windowsill. The only plant material that seemed remotely appropriately to display with it were okra pods and a rose hip or two.
The okra pods are actually sort of "topographical" in the same way the mountains are.
oooooo...these exercises were my favorite at Flower Camp!
