Winter Tree and a Roach

Yesterday, the weather was nice enough to comfortably sit outside and draw for a bit.  I still know nothing about drawing landscapes, but before trying that, I saw a tree with an interesting tangle of trunks, so I made an attempt to sketch that instead.

And simply for fun, another bug!  You may not feel the same, but the more I look at various insects and little critters, the prettier and more amazing they look to me.  It might help that I am copying from a book, but I still think they are beautiful.
