Love the way the tree is bent with the wind and the feeling of the wildness of nature David.

B4 Pencil sketch . I sketched this a few days ago on a sunny day. It is one of 160 Tors on Dartmoor and many say it looks like a man with a cap or a big nose. I have wanted to sketch it for ages. Now i am better, the mile walk to it is a lot easier. The small hawthorn tree was above and to the righthand side, so to balance the composition i needed to move it. The two birds were also positioned for the same reason. I also darkened the sky around the Tor to show it up.
