Ice and Inspiration

Once again, we southerners have found ourselves at the mercy of Mother Nature.  The outside world is covered in an icy veneer and no one's going much of anywhere for a couple of days.  So, a snow/ice day at home makes for a perfect excuse to break out the brushes and paint!  I decided to get some work done on a little piece for my scientific journal series.  This one features bur oak leaves and some rather destructive caterpillars.  I have to wait for some layers to dry, and then comes the fun of adding some more details and such to really make it come alive.  More to come when it's all finished up and, if the weather persists, that should be pretty soon!
