Gnarled Tree

An attempt to copy a Tolkien-style tree:


Pretty much perfect for the Halloween season. 

I find the simple pencil lines so clean and pleasing. The character of the tree comes through a little even in my poor copy...but the pen-and-ink original has something in it so much more real. Hard to explain, but I know it when I see it.
