I've forgotten whose blog I found virtualsketchdate.blogspot.com/
on... but I decided to give it a try this month. If you look at the big version of the photo, there's a rope, tied in a knot, hanging in the fork of the tree... I just focused on that part of the photo.... It was fun to draw, not sure I like how my tree colors turned out.

Elaine, I like your extreme crop and your colors look wonderful to me. It is so interesting what different people are attracted to in the same reference. That rope is one of the first things I eliminated!
ReplyDeleteGreat sketch, you've found some nice lines! Like you I was fascinated by the rope ...!
ReplyDeleteThe rope makes you wonder if there was a swing there at one time, or maybe kids swung out over a lake. Good job.
ReplyDeleteAh, the rope, I love that you tackled it. I like the view through to the leaves.
ReplyDeleteNice light and lovely sketch - it has a great feel to it!
ReplyDeleteI better have my eyes checked (or my monitor) - ha ha. I didn't even notice that rope. What a terrific job you've done -- great artistic interpretation!!
ReplyDeleteLove your crop and interpretation -I thought it was complex and difficult and was afraid to tackle it - you did such a Great job on it
