Interesting shapes. Marvellous.

Super work Martin.

Really beautiful Martin; your pen-work on the tree trunks is amazing! Great colours too.

I like this very much. Very well captured.

This is really excellent Martin. Great mark making.

Wow! What a lovely drawing this is… great tonal contrast - definitely would have appealed to me as well Martin!

Nature at its most resilient and twiggy! Very much a drawing I wish I'd done.

Love all that mark making, good one.

You have a great eye for subjects. So well done.

A really wonderful mix of marks, washes and calligraphy Martin. I love scenes like this, they are the kind that would attract my attention to paint. In fact, I wish I had painted this!😂

That is superb, Martin. Just love all the intertwining branches and the details.

Very good work Martin, the ink has added good texture to the trees.

Lovely work, Martin.

Super painting. Love the clever line work and the subtle understated colouring

Well thanks very much for your encouraging comments. Really appreciate them

I was drawn to the number of trees that had leaned over the brook and were thriving despite. Nature is so adaptable. This area has very recently been flooded but seems to be back to normal this week. Started En plein air with pen and walnut ink and finished in studio with carbon ink, watercolour and white ink. On A3 Canson 1577 paper
