Remarkable trees, everyone!
Here is one from my yesterday's trip to the mountain. I had to do it standing on my feet, which is a real challenge for me. So it had to be as quickest as possible.

sveta from the thumbnail it looks as great as all of your drawings always do, however when i click on it to get a better look, all i get is a large blank white page..

ty claudio..

Sveta: beautiful sketch, as usual I didn't have the problem that Kay reported; the big drawing came out nicely. I like that style; very loose and fast, but with nice detail.

Here is my attempt at yesterday's roots; I sat in a folding chair, and it was blowing a fresh wind, so I took some 40 minutes to make it. Not very fast, but I don't like rushing. The perspective was rather tricky, because it was a downhill.

Have a nice week everybody

what a lovely job claudio, great texture on those trees.

No clue why. Maybe too high a resolution! Will compress it and try once again.
Your "Between throwing ball for the dogs" and Claudio"s twin trees are great!

there we go..much better, you make everything from ink to color appear so effortless sveta..these are well done too of course

Hi, again! Yesterday I went to have a walk at Mont Bellevue, and I sketched a nice tree in pencil until I couldn't stand anymore the starving mosquitos (so I finished the drawing in ink at a nice bar in front of a cup of coffee). As I loved the drawing, I repeated at night, at home in a bigger format (original at left is 5,5" x 8.5", the other is 9" x 12").
Interesting differences between them, no?
Claudio

Excellent Claudio!

claudio, they are both simply gorgeous, wonderful!

Went to an open air concert and sketched this tree in the grounds.

OMG.. That's a huge tree.. !! great place to watch a concert from..

that is a great tree,..portsmouth here in NH has those all summer, the open air concerts..It is really nice.

I'm glad we went last evening, it was a lovely sunny evening and great to be outside! This evening it's pouring with rain and Status Quo are playing!

Very nice tree Steve! You worked very nicely the volume in the trunk and the leaves. Great work!
Claudio

Love the concert tree and Claudio's latest tree. Here are two modest attempts which cost me lots of scratches on my legs, worse backache than ever.
Ars longa, vita brevis

Nice sketches, Sveta. I like your style: loose and not overcharged. When I draw, however, I feel that if I don't use a gallon of ink, the drawing is not finished
I should learn to stop earlier.
