This was drawn in Kimball, Minnesota.  My Mother and her Mother were both born in the same house in Kimball.  They were delivered by the same Doctor, too.  It is a quiet, sleepy farm town with lovely rolling hills and dark fertile soil.  I was lucky to be there at sunset and to capture this peaceful scene.

How Water Tower was created.....   I pulled over to the side of the road and sketched this image with a fine-tipped black pen.  I made sure to capture the shadows and sense of fading light, too.  Later, I filled the image out with colored inks and then finished it with a top layer of oil-pastels to give it that soft glowing feel.

Water Tower was drawn on acid-free, heavy, white watercolor paper.  You will want to frame this lovely drawing to protect your investment.  One affordable means of framing is to purchase a standard-sized frame at your local home store and then bring the frame and the artwork together to a custom-framer.  Ask the framer to mat the art to fit the frame.
