Had a beautiful day drawing and painting trees. The trunks of the trees were smooth creams with patches of tan and orange. Some trees had these smooth trunks where the bark had peeled down. Others had the rough  bark striped up the trunks. The upper branches writhed at odd twisted angles. The birds were singing. A picnic lunch with family, a billy tea, charcoal and new rag paper sketch book. A perfect Saturday. Some photos of the area:
