Weekly Drawing Contest || Week-29 || Draw a Date Fruit.

When I saw the Weekly Drawing Contest || Week-29 || Draw a Date Fruit organized by Dear @enamul17 I remembered that I haven’t eaten sweet dates for a long time which my whole family loves.

During my childhood dates were perhaps the most affordable exotic fruit that we could afford and there were simply no other exotic fruits in stores except for tangerines and oranges grapefruits and pomegranates.

Today there is a tiny date palm growing in my apartment which my daughter grew from a date seed I bought in the confectionery section of the supermarket.

Surprisingly the seed of this fruit has an ideal spherical hole for the sprout until I saw this with my own eyes I did not pay attention to it.

So a little over an hour ago I decided to take part in a drawing competition and was wondering how I would draw a date.

I must say that it is very difficult to be original and show something special lol.

Therefore I decided to draw a drawing in the form of a caricature that shows us the life path of a date.

This path begins on the date palm then the collected fruit is eaten, leaving a seed which once in a moist environment begins to germinate and once in the soil it takes root and the first true leaves.

Over time the number of leaves increases and a palm trunk is formed on the branches of which ripe dates appear the life cycle is completed.

I wrote my name and date in the corner of a piece of paper from my sketchbook and started drawing where it all starts and ends for the date I started drawing a palm tree.

The palm tree grows slowly but I painted quite quickly.

Next I drew the date's path from palm to palm.

A date, its seed a seed that has sprouted a date palm sprouted in a flower pot and an already grown palm complete the chain.

You may be asking me what's in the date bags on your shoulders?

In them in bags like everything living, the desire to live is neatly folded!

Gradually I moved from sketching to creating some volume shadows and light.

After about an hour the drawing was ready I was able to put my drawing supplies namely a pencil with a graphite rod an eraser and a sharpener on the table and rest.

All that remains is to transfer photos from your smartphone to your computer and publish your post.

I invite my friends @eii @ranartblog @xaviduran to take part.
