This is in our neighborhood. Took a picture to paint later, it's later.

That’s a very wicked-looking cherry tree.
I wonder if any genus actually grows like that. All the ones I've seen, the branches droop downward when they get that big.
I don't know enough about trees to have any idea. I didn't know this was a cherry tree. I just thought it was pretty.
This is the reference I painted from. The limbs go up.
Okay, it’s a lot smaller than I thought. Almost like a sapling, but some of them only ever get that big.
The way it fans out close to the ground like that is strange to see. Not sure if a specific breed or just an odd grow.
No idea, I'd ask the people who live there but I don't like talking to people. I think there have been several families living in that house in the time we've lived here so they probably wouldn't know anyway.
Other than the flowering, what drew me to the tree is how the trunk is all weird so low. It's fun to look at.
I'm pretty sure that is a redbud tree, not cherry
This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨
Please visit https://lemmy.world/c/artmarket as well! This is a community for artists to post their portfolios and announce availability to take commissions, as well as get visibility for Ko-fi, Patreon, and other funding for art activities.
Rules
AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).
NSFW Policy: Nudity and suggestive content has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity or suggestive content, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity or suggestive content that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude or suggestive subject matter. If you aren't sure if your work is NSFW or not, just ask yourself, "Could I look at this at a typical office job and not get into trouble?" If you're still not sure after that, you should probably mark it as NSFW just to be on the safe side.
Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.
Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.
