This turned out to be "sketch plants that are not palm trees in Los Angeles" week, as seen in drawings I did. Palm trees are everywhere in this town, so I think I unconsciously sought out other trees and plants to draw for a change of pace:
Eucalyptus trees near my work
Mysterious tree with pods - does anyone know what this is???
(Pumpkins are plants, too! This was sketched on Halloween.)
This car with plants is a "Car Garden" art installation at Santa Monica Museum of Art, and I noticed that there are different plants from when I sketched it a year ago.




I'll have to start learning about some of the trees in my own neck of the woods :)
ReplyDeleteKeep sketching Shiho, I can't wait till we meet up again.

I remember talking about this to you. Love the pumpkin patch sketch. I don't know what those mysterious pods are, but I too have seen them.
ReplyDeleteI found the answer through fine folks at artplantae.com and themulch.com - it's golden medallion: http://www.themulch.com/component/plants/?view=plants&plantid=213
