Hyacinth Bean Vine

My first attempt with watercolors. It sure was fun, I completed it in the time it took Rowan to take his nap. I'm fairly pleased with how it turned out. But I'm a little unsure of how to go about giving it a background that isn't too distracting, so I left that pretty much blank. And I left out a stem on one of the leaves, woops. I think I'll try something a little more vivid than watercolor next. And something a little stiffer than newsprint would probably help too! It's a really awesome plant, all aerial parts are edible, the bright pink flowers have a wonderful flavor. Those purple pods are practically the only vegetable I can get Rowan to eat! Guess he inherited my love of foraging. I can remember being sooo pleased that I could go out to my mother's garden and find something to eat just growing there!
