Project V Day Seventeen: Magnolia Tree Leaf

I'm 99% certain that this is a leaf from a Magnolia tree. I'm pretty darn good at identifying birds but I have a lot to learn about the rest of nature. I've been using the Texas A&M Forest Service website to help me with tree identification and it's been super helpful. Behind the leaf are the three brushes I've used everyday for the last 17 days. I love them very much.

These have been my tools. A lot of stuff goes into a little leaf.

Holy moly: One. Day. Left.

Project VII-Day Thirty: Grass

And that is a wrap! Day Thirty's photo was taken at Oliver Nature Park in Mansfield, TX earlier this summer. The labeling of each drawing evolved during the project. In the bottom left-hand corner is the sequence number of the drawing within the 30-day time frame and the location of where the reference photo was taken. My take away from this particular project was having the opportunity to spend more time with a special moment I had in nature. It allowed me to marvel at the intricacies of the plants and animals around us.
