The Tree of Life. Markers. Full process. Step-by-step.

There is a park in America, which is called Disney Animal Kingdom .. And here in this park there is a huge tree: the Tree of Life. I decided to draw it.

And about the process

1. I start, as always, with a small sketch of the liner, which is resistant to alcohol and does not wash out during work.
   

2. Since the tree itself is quite dark, I'll start the work on the picture with the background. I enter the sky with a light blue color.
   

3. Now go to the foliage of the tree. I put a light tone, letting the place where the sky will shine through.
   

4. I dial shadows in the foliage.
   

5. Now the grass is in the foreground. It will also be lighter than a tree, but darker than light leaves.
   

6. I walk lightly through the bark of a tree, working through branches in the foliage.
   

7. I dial a dark tone on the bark of a tree.
   

8. I'll darken the shady places even more.
   

9. The trunk of the tree was much darker than foliage and grass. I add shadows to the greenery.
   

10. I add a few details and sign a sketch.
    

P.S. It is hard to write in English, because my native language is Russian. But I'm learning. If you notice serious errors in the text that interfere with the correct perception, please let me know about them.
