70th Challenge!

I cannot believe we are at 70.  Wow!  Way to go Laura aka The Diva.
This weeks challenge was to use brown instead of our usual black and white.  I used a burnt sienna wash and from the time it hit the paper, I felt like I was working on a native American buffalo hide.  And the result??? A native American plea for rain done on some sort of hide.
We could use some too in Southwest Florida.  It is very dry but I know June is on the way and with it the summer deluges begin.
