Sketchbook page from today
Pencil drawings: Trunk and a couple of thin branches and a few leaves of a Japanese maple on the upper left. 3 squares of a value scale below that. And to the right, a scene with a backlit tree in the foreground, some bands of indistinct grasses, and a cow grazing in the middle ground. Hazy background.

I love my tree from Mau! It is solid and attractive. I’ve had it for two years and it’s showing only very light signs of wear.
