Umbrellas

I struggled with this design before, maybe a year ago. I was trying to capture it in watercolours, but it didn't work out at all - the fine criss-crossing stems, the delicate umbrellas. But yesterday I saw a drawing on the FiftyThree website which reminded me of it (except much better than mine), so I decided to tackle it again, this time using Paper on my iPad. It needs some refinement, but I like the effect all the same. Maybe it will inspire me to have another go with this theme in  watercolours again.
