11,113 - Momma's Greenhouse ($36.95)

Width: 10.5" Length: 8.75"

Designer: Original design

Materials/Techniques: I used a black Sharpie fine marker with a lot of cross hatching. I then did a wash of green NeoColor II crayons. Enjoy!

Artist Statement: There are many stories about Momma's Greenhouse. She always called it a poor man's greenhouse. She and the rest of the family spent many hours in this small space. Her children and grandchildren all became good gardeners and have a love of the earth which is a good legacy. I always wanted to draw the plants in the greenhouse but never quite got around to it. She had many succulents and I thought they would be a great subject matter. I did an etching of this unnamed succulent and now a drawing. There are many memories here.
