Subject of Drawing 2:

Today's subject of drawing is nature as composition landscaping of your drawing. This coming week Matthew Archambault will have some new drawing tutorials that will help with this subject of drawing.

In his post, Matt talked about getting out of the four walled surroundings, to get some reference photos. He has some awesome photo references, for any of his projects. Matt will hire models or go out into the world to get his reference materials. I did the same today. I ventured outside and took some digital photos of some of my surroundings


With this shot above, I had to place the digital camera so the lens was viewing between the hole in the fence.

It amazes me how flowers, trees, and bushes can take over and give us some much beauty, if we only take the time to look.


This tree is across the road from me. I always worry when we get heavy storm coming through. Those white branches don't look too strong, but it make an interesting composition.



Here, we have some darks and lights of green with the sky in the background. The different shapes and light attracted my attention. Nature is the contribution to the subject of drawing for now.
