Magnolia Seed Pod

I have always enjoyed how two artists I follow, Nina Khashchina and Alissa Duke, have drawn stuff they find. So here goes. Magnolia trees in our area are putting out their seed pods these days. At first, they resemble a fuzzy, closed pine cones. Then they open and the red seeds appear. The birds love them.

Made in my Strathmore series 500 journal. 8.5 x 11 using Sharpie for the drawing and Shinhan watercolors.
