Another project I did for Pinnacles National Monument - this time they wanted me to illustrate some of the common oaks found in the park to help visitors identify them.

There are 6 species found in the park, but these are the most common. The two others not included are the Canyon Live Oak and the Interior Live Oak.

To make this I had to hike around and take all my reference photos (more than 300!) and collect some of the best looking specimens. The leaves and acorns are actual size, and the trees are relatively scaled to each other.

I hope they like it!

Beautiful Nysha each one looks very detailed like ready for a cinematical presentation and is nice to see that every example seems to be the main character of their kind, I can't pick which one I like the most, each reflect the best attributes which means you take care of that to happen, that the viewer do not miss any of them and that's a lot of dedication, really really beaitiful. Thanks for sharing ≧^◡^≦

From a professional landscaper, congratulations, wonderful work, well detailed and beautifully presented. You should try putting some of this work together as an educational pack for schools

Thank you very much! I'm glad you think so. :)
Interesting suggestion. I'll have to see what the Pinnacles National Monument does with this project first.
