Autumn Blackberry Botanical Study: Canes with Last Berries and Autumn Rain Dew Drops
Recommended materials
This is how it could look
Richly detailed, tactile, atmospheric autumn blackberry botanical study: large-format, close-range study of bramble/blackberry (Rubus fruticosus) section in full autumn glory. Canes: thick, arching, extraordinarily armed with curved red thorns at every angle, every thorn individually and precisely placed. Berries: in every stage — pure black (ripe), dark red (nearly ripe), red (unripe), green (very late); each berry individually drawn as cluster of drupelets, each drupelet showing own surface reflection. Leaves: most turned to deep wine-red and burgundy, deeply veined, five-lobed, serrated. Autumn rain: recent — every thorn tip, berry, leaf edge carrying perfectly-formed spherical water drop. Blackberry spirit: very small, thorn-coloured, hiding within tangled canes near base.
