Tree View

My friend, Mary Jo Ernst, is once again doing a postcard project. She is collecting art postcards to send to the troops overseas. She is trying to collect 200 postcards in support of the US forces abroad and domestic. The cards will be mailed around Feb 14. I participated last year and figure since I am sitting bedside with Jerry these days, I can sketch/paint a few to send to her for the project. I sketched this from the hospital cafe today and added color when I got home tonight. This was done with my ink pen, an elegant writer pen and watercolors.
