Drawing and sketching plays a very important role in any artist's life. In fact from my personal experience I know how I have ended spending hours and hours rectifying a painting only because right at the start I did a drawing which had errors.

Trees are an important part of landscape drawing. I find it very challenging. Each tree has its unique features, barks, character and an identity of its own. It feels great to define its form and shape by using charcoals and pastels on paper. The more I draw and sketch the more it helps me in my understanding of landscape paintings.
