I took this photograph of this flowering tree at Huntington Gardens in the fall. I thought this tree was gorgeous and luminous... If I remember, I'll try to post a close up of the tree's flowers in my next photo post. I'm not sure what the tree is called, in addition to being in bloom, it had thorns running up the body of the trunk. I hope that you will enjoy this photo!
I love to paint flowers, you may see some of my finished paintings at lisarusso.com if you'd like.
===========================================
Here is a sketch of a big eyed maiden. She has a sweet quixotic gaze... I think she is most likely a fairy angel, although she could also be a mermaid or a goddess. I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.
I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in November. This is day 29.
I would like to try to reach a goal of 100 faces sketched on consecutive days, I started this effort on September 1st, 2017... This is face 90.
This is a rough sketch.
