Flowers-Hibiscus
“Hibiscus” is part of the Flower Collection.
Pen and Ink Drawing done on watercolour poured on Arches Paper…

Beautiful and brief
Is your blooming above
Our late summer leaf
Sudden as descent of
White startled dove
Your wonder was sent
At dawn you were not seen
Now you’re splashed on marsh
Where only green has been
Are you butterflies
Immobilized in flight
Drifting from our skies
Frail as paper boat
Are you musical notes
Dropped on creek to float
Are you pastel dreams
And is our colored marsh
Not the grass it seems
Soon you’re borne away
Reflected in streams
Of our Piscataway
Beautiful and brief
Is your stay above
The late summer leaf..A. Ware

I love this Janis! The colors, composition, angle of the flowers, everything just works for me. I really like the threads of black lines throughout.

So beautiful; love the dissolved look to this; especially while over a blue water-like background. Love the splashes of color which become more abstracted and blended together as you look further away.

That’s drawing in ink on poured watercolour, both while wet and dry…I pour random colours, so never know what I’m going to draw until I see the full effect of the paint on the paper…glad you like it…
