Kansas City Skyline in a 5" x 7" Size - Watercolor & Ink
This little 5" x 7" painting was so much fun. By the way... the only ink used in these paintings is black. All of the color is watercolor painted in with the tiniest little brushes.
About Plutarch
Plutarch, the Greek historian who penned more than 46 anecdote-laced biographies of famous Greek and Roman figures in his Parallel Lives
series of books, was more interested in exploring the influence of
character on a man's personal destiny than in writing dry histories. He
was born in Greece during Roman rule, most likely in the year 45. He
traveled extensively through the Roman Empire, finally returning home to
become a priest of Apollo at the Oracle of Delphi. He died in the year
120.
