#silver maple leaf

You are not immune to baby maple leaf

Silver maple leaf, with two very interesting cracks in the leaf that I got to do a brown-to-yellow-to-green gradient on, slightly compressed vertically due to me misjudging how to position it on the paper/what proportions to give those two side lobes.

This is also the maiden voyage of my new sap green! It's quite a bit darker than either of the old ones I worked with, so that's taking some getting used to.

Those splotches in the top left are from my hand. I rested it against some parts of the painting that hadn't totally dried yet, and didn't notice it until I had already stamped another part of the painting with the same dark green spots. I could have edited that out digitally, but I think it's funny and can stick around as an element of my style.
