It's been a long time since I participated in Illustration Friday. This is a persimmon tree on a silent afternoon, late in the year.

Love this drawing Andrea!
Persimmon trees are beautiful and are quite common in the Texas Hill country...missing sunny Texas about now and already :-(

Lovely, It almost looks like a linoleum or woodblock print. I love the textures.

This evokes such a feeling of peace, it's a perfect fit for silence! It's perfect!

Hello Andrea, You have the surname of a great artist, the great Hugo Pratt, do you know?
Well, actually, your picture is very good, I love it!

Yes, this IS like a lino print! A reduction lino, as I see it. Hmm...I see possibilities here.A change of direction for you, perhaps?
