Emily Dickinson Homestead - The Oak

10 1/4" x 7" Watercolor, Pen and Ink
sold

I've always loved the combo of watercolor with pen and ink and immediately thought of this medium for this subject.  The oak tree was around when Emily Dickinson was alive and is mentioned in several of her poems.  The garden, the fence and hedge have all been newly restored in the last couple of years to the Emily Dickinson Museum here in Amherst.
