The Drawing Lab

Do you have a favorite tree?

I do.

Whenever I feel overwhelmed, scattered, or simply need a moment to reconnect, I visit a tree near my home. I lean against its trunk, close my eyes, and breathe. Within minutes, I feel calmer, more grounded, and reminded that I am part of something larger than myself.

This week’s Substack drawing prompt is all about trees—not as scenery, but as unique individuals. No two trees are alike. Their branches reach into the sky in their own distinctive patterns, each one telling a different story.

I’d love to know: Do you have a tree you return to again and again?

🌿 Join me on Substack for this week’s drawing prompt and reflection on the art of seeing.

Drawing is a fundamental human capacity for thinking, connecting, and creating change. Built on the belief that everyone possesses a natural “Drawing Mind,” my approach empowers people of all ages and backgrounds to use drawing as a tool for observation, communication, imagination, healing and problem-solving.
