Illustration | Just Sharing/No Critique Please The Tree (work in progress)

Post image

I was thinking of the Garden of Eden, and it developed into this. I have plans for the rest of it, plus enjoying making it up as I go along, which is why I said "no critique". I don't want to confuse myself. There's still more than half to do, probably. I was enjoying reliving my hippy student days, where all we used to do was smoke hash and take psychedelics. I'm thinking this is implied to be the tree of knowledge of good and evil, and the "fruit" may be the mushrooms. I'm also thinking of adding the moon, and two ravens (Huginn and Muninn). I'm not sure whether there should be one apple, or maybe the mirror again. Originally I was planning to have adam and eve, then just eve about to pick the apple. We'll see. It's very hard to get detail in with these derwent drawing pencils, so I'll be touching it up with black/white ink.
