#109 – All quiet on the western frond

Palm treeA bit of a cheat here: the wind was moving the trees around too much, so I actually did this later the evening based on a picture in the hotel room.  Lame, I know — but having that environmental control made it a lot easier.

As time investment goes, this is the opposite of yesterday’s sketch.  Fortunately, this subject matter allows you to get away with a very quick and basic version.  Simple as it is though, it’s cool too see how just a little variation in value can sell the dimensionality of the leaves.
