So for week three I have decided to try to learn how to draw trees. There are a ton of tutorials on YouTube to pick from, and I watched quite a few of them. The first thing I had to do was decide what kind of tree I wanted to draw; obviously drawing a fir tree is much different than drawing a palm tree. I actually did a number of quick doodles of different types of trees as I was deciding, and eventually thought it best to just try to draw something very generic. Eventually I would like to draw an entire landscape, and this is just one step to that end. The video I ended up using for this week's example of my work was relatively simple, and did not require any exotic materials...Just pencil and paper.

Very cool drawing Mr. West! I like the shading you did too, it brings life and depth to your drawing. Did you follow the artist's process in the video exactly or did you make slight alterations? Keep up the good work!

It came out looking pretty good! I will say if i tried to make the leaves I would probably quit thinking it just looks like scribbles, but when you see it all done together in its final form it comes out pretty nice.
