Last year's clematis leaves in pen and ink

Today's doodle was brought on by the Illustration Friday prompt fleeting. I suppose dead (so dead they're crispy) clematis leaves could be looked at as the leftovers of summer's fleeting memory. They could be, if a person wanted to go all Last Rose of Summer on the subject...

Me? I just like the lines, so I purposely kept this very simple (maybe too simple? It's almost an abstract, really).

That, plus (here comes the honesty part) the fact is that I don't have my Micron with me so I was using one of those new Sharpie nylon-tipped writing pens. Not a bad feel, actually, but a bit too thick for details unless you're working pretty big. Which I wasn't.

Enough typing, already...
