There's a forest of scrub oak, sprinkled with wild California poppies, in a preserved green space named Lambert Park in our town of Alpine, Utah, which has long intrigued me. This is the fifth in a series of color studies from that area. With this one, I wanted to just experiment with ink and crayon texture, softening it with alcohol and a cotton ball, to express the interplay of shapes, colors, and light.
