A Pine Tree

When I was studying drawing at the university, they used to project a slide of an object with a projector way out of focus. We were supposed to draw what we saw, which was mostly just light and dark spaces. Then the instructor would progressively sharpen the image until we could recognized what it was and begin to add details. This exercise was supposed to help us understand the difference between light and dark. I think I learned the lesson.
