Sketch at Griffith

Went on a little hike in some random area in Griffith Park yesterday and did a little sketch along the way.  I picked this tree because it had so many beautiful colors, but I don't think I captured it. It is so hard to draw trees even though they look so simple!  Bright side is that I got some brand new Rembrandt pastels that are 100 times so much more amazing then there cheap Blick student grade chalk pastels I had before.  Definitely recommend this brand!
