Just a Perfect Day

I started this drawing accidentally, by testing out some new fountain pen inks from The Birmingham Pen Company used as watercolor. This one, "Algae Bloom," intrigued me; it splintered into dark green, yellow, and blue with the addition of a little water. 

The more I looked at it, the more it looked like. a landscape. So, I turned it into one, a quick little drawing on a warm, false-Spring sort of early March day, channeling those golden warm nights on the horizon. (And a nod to "Blackboard Bear", a favorite book as a child.
