Day 8 of the "30 in 30 Art Challenge"

Treetop

graphite/charcoal

11" x 14"

I have always been enamored with skies in any way--sunny, stormy, sunset, sunrise.

 And have been stopping to photograph a great sky whenever I get the chance.

This sky I spotted as I was driving. My camera was with me,

so I pulled over on the side of the road and took the photograph looking through the windshield. 

It was a great shot of the clouds. 

But honestly I really didn't want the treetop.  It just got in the way of those gorgeous cumulus-nimbus clouds. But later when I looked at the photograph I kind of liked the trees peeking in the view.

So here it is.
