Quercus falcata, Michx. 1801. Southern Red Oak, Spanish Oak, Swamp Red Oak
Literally, thousands of twirls and rotations of my pen nib create miniature circles and swirls to complete this illustrated 10"x8" double cut board, matting the 3.5"x2.5"ATC illustration of the Quercus falcata acorn. This is the second oak decorated mat I have drawn. I did the first one last year, also on January, 2011, shown left.
