Sharpy markers on Strathmore paper

I was thinking about jelly beans when I started this, but then it evolved into ears of corn. I have had vegetables on my mind lately. Actually ever since I saw the TedTalk by Matteson, an NIH researcher who is espousing intermittent fasting as a way to preserve neurological health in advanced age.  Perhaps I'll do a vegetable series

Sharpies on Strathmore Paper
6.8" x 4.8"
