Trees, trees, trees!

I’ve been reading a book about drawing techniques lately, and one of the assignments was to draw different types of trees.

I got very inspired, and decided this would be a day dedicated to tree drawing. Learning to do it as well as possible.

So I set to work. First by drawing quick sketches of trees, and then taking some more time adding details and shadows.

Here are three of the trees:

Trees1

Trees2

Trees3

I thought the pen drawing turned out rather nice, so I wanted to have another go at a more comprehensive drawing with a micron pen and some promarkers.

I think it went well.

There’s something really relaxing about drawing up the branches, adding some green leafs on top. Almost like a trip to the garden 🙂

Anyway, this is how it looked:

A lot of branches
