Donna’s Sketchbook

@donnamakesart this is lovely! I’m not very good with trees and general foliage. I would love to do this exercise as well. Now you’ve inspired me. Hehe

I felt a bit dishearted with it... Maybe I’ll revisit this in the future.

Update on the master study. This is kind of proving how, even when we copy other artist’s work, you will draw it differently. My hand naturally drew the elements one size too big haha.

I suspect this was done traditionally then finished digitally but I have figured a way to fake the textures on Procreate. It just takes a lot of conscious work

The biggest take away was really the shape language. I’m not sure if I want to incorporate it in my style but it’s another tool in my tool box
