Near the farm there are all these gnarled and twisted old ghost gums that I am so in love with. Today we spent our time out in the fresh air and sun so I took out my book and drew this one tree. Gene walked past and said “It’s like an Australian Faraway Tree”

It’s what we need – an Australian Faraway tree – I love the way you’ve captured the gnarling-ness. All it needs is a kid in the branches reading Enid Blyton

this tree is ginormous! Would need a crane to put a kid in it! 😉

The lower branches look climable if you could get up there. But I like the idea of a hint of snuggle pot or maybe Blinky bill somewhere.
It is beautiful

Lily Mae there’s some trees worthy of your pen near home….Beaufort have you ever been to a Beaufort show? Do you know if the Pyrenees Award? Interested in an entry this year or next for one of your local pieces? Beaufort Agricultural Society has a page with the details or you can pick info up at our local library.
