December 2011: Pines
Originally uploaded by apple-pine
Palo Alto pine trees continue to be cut to pieces. I tried to console myself by spending some time drawing the process but it was surprisingly hard to hear the sound of broken limbs when I am so close to it. Street looks foreign. Click on the image to see more sketches form this series.
That seems sad that they are cutting trees in your neighborhood - do you know why they are doing this? Many pine trees have been killed in California by the Pine Bark Beetle. ..
ReplyDeleteNice drawings!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Micaela!
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately they are cutting trees to make way for the road... pines have very strong roots and damaged existing one.
