Steemit Engagement Challenge WOX Community S6W3: Drawing Trees

Good morning (my time) folks. Day 1 of my big art show is in the books and now I am about to head back out for day 2. It is a 2 hour round trip drive on top of the show and we have to pack up at the end so it's going to be a long day.

It was tougher to make some art during the show than I anticipated, but that was a good thing. It just means we were busy with customers. I will have a post for these days starting tomorrow. For now, I did my best to get something for this competition last minute.

My plan was to work on wood pieces so people could see the process and know that it is all handmade. I forgot to grab any blank wood to burn on though. Luckily, I also grabbed some charcoal pencils so I made a few quick sketches, most of which I threw away.

We had more time later in the show for me to work on these a little bit, but it also meant I didn't have much time as once the show was done, we had a long drive and were very hungry.

This is a pine forest. Trees in the back were smudged to give the impression of distance. It's been awhile since I used charcoal for much of anything, as it rarely has a place aside my wood burned art, opting instead for watercolors, colored pencils or even acrylic paints.

Given I'll have a couple posts to make about the ongoing art show and @jae5086 will make chapter 3 for @xpilar's writing competition, it may be a few days before I get another piece of art showcased. This may be a good thing, as I'm going to have to really hunker down and build back my inventory.

See you all then! Now, back to the show!
