Take a look at these amazing tree drawn artworks by a very innovative London based artist Tim Knowles. From his online exhibition:

Hawthornlandscape@72

Drawings produced by pens attached to the tips of tree branches, as the branches move in the wind the tree draws on to a panel or drawing board on an easel. Like signatures the trees drawings tell of the tree’s character; a Hawthorn producing a stiff, scratchy & spikey drawing an Oak a more elegant flowing line.

Beautiful, so unique. The last photo especially looks great, nice find. We better watch our backs, trees might be the next design generation :)

It is so unusual. I love it as well. I might see how I can get some prints as well.

The ironic part about it is that the photos of the trees doing the drawings are almost more iconic than the actual “drawings”.
