Snow

 This was today's view from my studio. The dry purple coneflowers look like cotton puff balls.

Under the motto "draw what you see" I did a little sketch of a few of them. It was fun to use the black walnut ink again. I think it is a little hard to see that it is snow on top.
As I was drawing, I suddenly saw some movement on top of the snow. A deer was peeking over the top of the snow mount! Surprise! Too bad I did not have my camera handy, it was so funny to see.

By the time I got upstairs the dogs saw the deer too and scared it away quickly.
