June drawing prompt and sketchbook pages

Happy June!

This month’s drawing prompt is trees.

Take your sketchbook with you and draw the trees in your neighborhood, at the beach, on a picnic, while traveling…

There’s only one rule: you must draw from life, on location.

Tip: Limit your materials and your color palette. Too many choices can be overwhelming.

Below are a few drawings I made at Will Rogers State Historic Park.

And sketches of fruit trees in my neighborhood: orange, lemon, white mulberry, and fig.

All of these sketches were done with ink and brush pens in a pocket sketchbook.

I’d love to see your drawings! Feel free to send me images of your work.
