Pencil Drawing 9 x 12 on paper
The Banyon Trees in Venice are in a beautiful park in the downtown area near the beach. They were a gift of Edison when he visited the city in the early 1920's. Venice has only been here from the early 1900's, so we are not very old. The banyon's are quite unique. I was drawn to them after reading that Georgia O'Keeffe drew banyon's while she was in Bermuda, and since she is my new muse, I decided to see what I could do with the subject. I have not seen her's yet, but will look for them in a book at the library.
