Inktober, 2 Dogwood

Dogwood always reminds me of my Grandmother, Lyle Genevieve, or Mimi,
and driving through the mountains around Grass Valley area where their ranch was…
Even though we see it all over Oregon it reminds me of the California mountains.

I may have inked first, but I love color….
This is Da Vinci’s Alizarin Crimson but used sparingly.
Hematite (I think) and Prussian Blue create the background.
