Donuts and trees
Our watercolor class went on a field trip to Bartholomew Winery in Sonoma, California for some outdoor drawing. I like to work small so I limited my work to a single tree that I added to my sketchbook. It was a wonderful day for drawing. I was sitting with a friend, chatting and catching up with each other as we drew and watched the lizards running around the rocks.
Earlier this morning I sketched at a local donut shop, much to the delight of the owner who asked to see my work. After I was home I copied my page to fit a 4" by 6" postcard which I mailed to the guy at the shop. He'll receive it tomorrow -- and won't he be surprised!
What a wonderful idea about the post card! I'm sure the donut shop owner will be thrilled with a copy of your beautiful sketch.
ReplyDeletereally like the shading on the trunk. trees are the best to draw.
ReplyDeletebeautiful sketches! I simply love the tree! =)
ReplyDeleteBoth are great sketches! I bet the guy will be quite happily surprised!
ReplyDeleteThank you, everyone. I rarely draw trees, but I was determined to try harder!
ReplyDeleteI like to sketch the situation that I'm in -- like the donut shop -- because it's sort of like telling a story.
