I had the chance to go out and draw for a hour or so this evening as the sun was going down, and what better way to spend the time than draw one of my favourite subjects: a tree. I call it a "study" because that sounds like the sort of thing that proper artists do, but really, I just like drawing trees! I had to rush a bit at the end as it was getting dark, but it was a lovely evening to be out drawing.

Your tree looks GREAT!!! I too love them, this one looks so real.
ReplyDeleteStudy does sound more serious than drawing - you're not just doing this for fun - you're working at it! Lovely job, in any case. I find trees so difficult, I either get lost in the details or just paint green blobs. This is a good lesson for me.
ReplyDeleteLovely drawing Dave - that's a very sensitive study
ReplyDeleteYou've done brilliantly with this! I get completely lost in the detail of trees, but you've managed to make it look detailed but also capture that soft evening mood.
ReplyDeleteI like your girl feeding pigeons too. Well done for finding time to draw amongst all that marking!
Very nice. Loved viewing it..

ReplyDeleteLovely, sensual drawing Dave!
The tree is wonderful. And you drew this en plein air? Fantastic idea :)!
ReplyDeleteGreat study! I have trouble with trees, just don't know where to start...I do admire you.
