Red Tulip
It was a pleasure to return from vacation and see our tulips at the house in full bloom. the weather was so cool and damp while we were away, that the blooms slowed down. Typically they are only in bloom for a day or 2 until the deer eat them. There are 4 colors and they are beautiful. Over the next few days I will be sketching each of them.

A partial elevation completed in color for one of our projects in the office. This is a partial rear elevation of a proposed new building. Holbein watercolors with Faber-Castell Pitt Art pens on Strathmore watercolor board.
Bottle Cleaner Flower
One final (maybe) from vacation. I think this is the name of this flower. There are thousands on each tree. We saw the trees at the Botanical Gardens and near the pier. Holbein watercolors in a Stillman and Birn sketchbook.

The Beach Club
The Beach Club in Naples Florida is a great location right on the beach. Sunday nights are when everyone gathers to drink, listen to live music, dance and watch the sunset. I mean everyone. Pilot Falcon fountain pen with Noodlers black ink and Holbein watercolors in a Stillman and Birn sketchbook.
