Sketch of Hydrangea paniculata

Sketch of Hydrangea paniculata

Unframed

A4 in size (approximately 21x30 cm; 8x12 inches)


Original artwork, signed by the artist.


A sketch of a beautiful little flowering tree (Hydrangea paniculata) from my mother's garden in Russia. Some yellow Rudbeckia laciniata Goldball flowers on the background.





It was quite a challenge to do outdoor sketches near Moscow during summer 2010 because of incredible heat and smock from peat fires. I had to work as fast as I could.
 
The print with  "warmed up" colors is available from Deviant Art
