I happen to love this certain kind of tree that looks as if its bark is peeling off. I’m not sure what it’s called. I saw one in my hometown from the Dunkin Donut’s drive-up ordering station.
And started a preliminary sketch:
Funny that I thought I’d be so interested in the bark and the branches, and it ends up being the power lines and metal walls that draw my attention. I also wondered at the back story behind that tree being there at all. I’ll have to go back and look again. Tomorrow I’ll start over on a better piece of paper.
By the way, today marks 2 solid weeks of daily drawing and it feels GREAT!
