I had the adjusted scan of the original on a lightpad, so I could trace the image. I had done some pencil drawing on the trunk and branches to define them first. It was very difficult getting fine lines especially for the pine needles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is the image that I was copying from on the lightpad. As you can see I don&#8217;t even attempt to draw most of the image. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"933\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/sbooth.net\/sblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/kano_eitoku_4_accomp_03_gs-933x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-113\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sbooth.net\/sblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/kano_eitoku_4_accomp_03_gs-933x1024.png 933w, https:\/\/sbooth.net\/sblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/kano_eitoku_4_accomp_03_gs-273x300.png 273w, https:\/\/sbooth.net\/sblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/kano_eitoku_4_accomp_03_gs-768x843.png 768w, https:\/\/sbooth.net\/sblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/kano_eitoku_4_accomp_03_gs-1399x1536.png 1399w, https:\/\/sbooth.net\/sblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/kano_eitoku_4_accomp_03_gs-1865x2048.png 1865w, https:\/\/sbooth.net\/sblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/kano_eitoku_4_accomp_03_gs-1200x1318.png 1200w, https:\/\/sbooth.net\/sblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/kano_eitoku_4_accomp_03_gs-1980x2174.png 1980w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 933px) 100vw, 933px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>And here is what that portion of original looks like.
