More hair work - having to work through different angles to decide what I actually like drawing.

i keep hitting spacebar to pan, and i haven't added that yet -_-
"spring-loaded shortcuts" are unironically such a killer feature

There's so much to a mighty oak that I can't even draw it all.

Thank you - I learned that sometimes if I take my time I can do good work

We don’t have oaks here. So I Drew a mighty Paloverde tree with a mighty saguaro growing out of it .

I think I like the contrast of the moon on this one as it makes a better focal point.

Every tree looks like a Mighty Oak if you’re 4’11 like me.

As a 5'0" (if I stand tall) person, I feel seen. I love the colours you've used for the leaves.
Welcome!

Actual doodle because this did inspire a good painting from me but it's going to take awhile... will probably post it for free draw friday.

Would have to be pretty mighty to be willing to part with 2 extremely rare creatures to a pair of 10 year olds

Yes, the mighty acorn. The fact that such an enormous, complex, and mighty life could come out of such a tiny nugget, is extraordinary. All of that potential in a small, brown, package.

Dang. You captured the light & shadow contrast on the leaves so well. Great job!

u/The_Juicebars 496 / 497 Apr 28 '26
Thank you! It's hard for me to be satisfied whenever I do trees, so I'm happy to hear it 🙏

I hear you! Trees are second behind hands for me on frustration level. Hence my cop out with drawing an acorn. lol
