Picked up this book tonight, originally written in the 1800s. The Introduction is 11 pages long going on and on about “kids these days want to use shortcuts (color pencils) and don’t want to put in the effort to get good at something”

Continuing to work on my drawing skills. I’m happy with how I’m drawing bark and I’m starting to figure out shading a bit. But I’ve got foliage pads without obvious branches which looks odd.

I’ve got a perennial mint patch and one of my favorite things is cleaning up all the woody branches in the fall. The wood smells so sweet and minty. Its like the best mojito ever

Did some fall maintenance on my Japanese maple. I think I want cut the left trunk 1 node shorter eventually, and next year I’ll cut the main trunk stump back flush with the bottom of the left trunk. This one has 5-6 years to develop before it’s in good shape #bonsai

Late fall wiring maintenance on my Norway Maple. I’m trying to embrace the out and up approach for styling maples. Kinda excited to see it next spring with new foliage #bonsai

It’s my first time dipping into chocolate and it looks like a mess, but damn this tastes really good

Once the ganache is poured into the chocolate frame I sprinkled kataifi (crunchy thin slices of phyllo dough) over the ganache. Now I gotta let it set up

One of the weird things about taking a drawing class as an adult is the teacher keeps saying “remember back to doodling as a child…”. I never doodled. Wasn’t a thingI did. I thought it was odd that everyone else did.
Anyway, I learned a neat easy way to show depth on a tree trunk
