In 1989 I drew seed pods that I labeled “cradle tree”. Last week I drew dried kiwi.

I don’t know where I got the tree name in 1989 (there is no real cradle tree that I could find), but a little internet searching revealed that what is pictured here is actually seed pods from a bottle tree. Which proves my drawings were fairly accurate, as the ID was not difficult.

The dried kiwi were a gift from my sister-in-law. There are beautiful as well as tasty.

Once again, I did one left handed (above) and one without looking at the page (below). I like it.

And the black and white kiwi in the top illustrations was done without lifting the pencil from the page.
