My teen and I went hiking on Easter and found a number of trout lily (𝘌𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘶𝘮 𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘶𝘮) leaves springing up about the Wiley Trails:

A single gray-mottled green leaf, a slim oval with pointed ends, rises out of a carpet of crunchy brown dried leaves.

The image depicts a botanical illustration of the Melaleuca leucadendron plant, showcasing three distinct forms of its flowers. The illustration is detailed and colorful, with a light beige background. The flowers are arranged in clusters, with the top section featuring large, fluffy, yellowish-white blooms, the middle section displaying white flowers, and the bottom section showing vibrant red and pink flowers. Each flower cluster is surrounded by elongated, green leaves with a glossy texture. The branches are reddish-brown, adding contrast to the green leaves and colorful flowers. The illustration is framed by a thin red border, and at the bottom, there is a caption that reads "Three Forms of Melaleuca Leucadendron, Linn."

Explore Hundreds of Exquisite Botanical Collages Created by an 18th-Century Septuagenarian Artist via Colossal [Shared]

At age 72, Mary Delany (1700-1788) devoted herself to her art practice, taking up a form of decoupage to create an exquisite collection of botanical collages from dyed and cut paper. She interpreted many of the delicate specimens she encountered in Buckinghamshire while staying with her friend, the Duchess of Portland, through layered pieces on black backdrops. From the wispy clover-like leaves of an oxalis plant to the wildly splayed petals of the daffodil, the realistic works are both stunning for their beauty and faithfulness to the original lifeforms.

The image depicts a botanical illustration of a flowering plant with a dark background. The plant is identified as "Panaverium Marilinum," commonly known as the Sea Daffodil. The illustration features a cluster of white, elongated petals with a delicate, curving structure, resembling a spider's web. The petals are arranged in a spiral pattern, with some extending outward and others curling inward. The stamens, visible at the tips of the petals, are yellow with pinkish-red anthers. The plant has broad, green leaves with a slightly glossy texture, positioned at the base of the flower. The illustration is detailed, with shading and highlights that give depth to the petals and leaves. The name of the plant is written in cursive script at the bottom right corner, with the scientific name above it. The overall composition is centered, with the plant occupying the majority of the space, creating a striking visual impact against the black background.

Emerging leaves and flower buds

End of a branch with opening new bright green leaves encircling a green cone shaped cluster of buds in bright sunlight. The stem below the growth is yellow-green transitioning to red just below the base of the leaves and flower buds. The background is a blurred view of a path and neighboring trees and plants. A single strand of a spider web connects the two leaves closest to the path.

Jasper the Cat ‘helped’ me with my watercolor practice today, but there seems to be no permanent damage to my desk. I persevered, and finished the leaf study I had set myself.
#MastoArt #art #FediArt #artist #leaves #doodle # #sketching #sketch #sketchbook #pen #watercolors #newbie #handmade

A sketchbook page with several leaves drawn with a fine pen, tinted with green watercolor. There are also some freeform flower-like dabs made with a paintbrush loaded with pink paint.

This is Jasper on the desk about 25 seconds before he knocked over the water jug I was using for my watercolors
