This copse of trees seemed to be grabbing on to the dark air as night fell one winter evening, drawing it around us as I watched. This ink drawing is mounted on an archival backing and 8-ply mat, and custom framed by the artist.
* A note about this frame: It is made from a small supply I have of cedar wood I bought decades ago and stored. It has aged to a deep chestnut-red, and I've painted the inner and outer surfaces black, finishing the entire frame with boiled linseed oil.
(Something is up with the tone of the first (unframed) photograph. The tone of the framed photo is more accurate. I'll replace the first one as soon as I get a chance.)
