Course work: Drew an additional view of a pecan tree as correction for a previous misinterpretation of instructions.
Did two preliminary sketches in preparation for the next part of the exercise. The first is done in an open stand of mixed oaks and hickories, looking across an open grassland toward a treeline in the middle distance. The second is done on a woodland trail with mostly small mixed hardwoods on the left and a rather dense stand of small loblolly pines on the right, again looking toward a distant treeline seen across open grassland. At present I’m more inclined to further develop the first one.

Pp 108-113, 120-131
Personal sketchbook work: Three single-line manikin sketches. The pen ran out of ink on the first. The second, with a Derwent Terracotta pencil, just failed completely…I have no idea where the missing parts are. The third, with a different pen, is only a little better.
Total time:
