Sunday Sketches - Tall Grasses



Welcome to Alexandra's Sunday Sketches. This piece features 'Tall Grasses' in the fall, because I like the look of them with the colourful trees acting as a contrast in the background. It's done in my art journal (8 1/2" x 11") in watercolour pencil.

Thoughts now turn to the Christmas season as it is upon us!

  1. Beautifully done!
    Grass in my small garden turning to the same color and this is the only thing that upsets me about fall.

  13. I love different grasses and often let them grow in my garden, while other gardeners see those as weeds. I use grasses in my flower bouquets and they look great.
