Alykanas on the island Zakynthos

We had a nice bungalow with private swimming pool in the village of Alykanas. It was located in a field with numerous olive trees. I just had to peer over to fence. So there I was, sipping on some wine, on a sunny sunday afternoon, headphones with quiet classical music, spening my time making this intricate drawing. Almost therapy.

Olive trees are incredible with their thick bark, long strong branches and leaves like a willow tree. Your sketch does them justice. It was a fine way to spend an evening.

Thanks Michael. I just posted a sketch of another olive tree, the oldest in Europe, for your behalf!
