Apple Tree

We all have regrets, right? Well one of my regrets happened a about two or three years ago. I really like to draw outside with sidewalk chalk. I was drawing at my grandma's house and my grandma and my great great Aunt Helen(she was 100 years old at that time) came out to watch me. I asked my Aunt Helen what she wanted me to draw for her. She thought for a moment and then told me that she wanted me to draw her an apple tree. I said okay, and started drawing. I had just learned how to draw a somewhat realistic tree but the drawing wasn't working. I sort of just finished it and went to a different drawing.

Some of you may think, Well that's a cool story... Why is that a regret? Well, it's a regret because my Aunt died the next year. I really loved her and I was super sad to see her go. She was very old and it was good for her to die but it still hurt. As I think back about it, I really wanted to make it up to her. She loved the tree, but it wasn't my best chalk drawing so I drew her another apple tree. But, because it is super cold outside, I drew it inside and with charcoal. What do you think?

Sorry I threw the background together really fast! Also, the main
tree in the center, the model for that was Newton's tree. The one
that dropped and apple on his head.

I just wanted this post to be a little bit of a tribute to my Great Great Aunt. She was truly amazing! I looked up to her because she was super funny, kind, and mischievous. She was always fun to be around even when she had a hard time remembering things. She always would let us play with her things at her home and she would always be positive! I loved that! She was truly an amazing lady! Well, see ya!!
