Comparisons

This is just a comparison between my drawings and a photo. The top is the Meiji Shrine in Tokyo. The middle is our family's house in Graz and the bottom is the Koelner Dom.
Does anyone have a suggestions on how to draw bushes/trees/shrubbery?

Sketches Windecken

I have lived in Windecken, Germany for quite a few years, but I never took the time to appreciate the local architecture. Although it is nothing grand, it is still very quaint. Here are my first two sketches:

The first is the Hexenturm [the witch tower], in witch, I mean in which, women who were accused of being witches were locked away.

The second sketch is the local Protestant church. It was first mentioned in the city records in 1282.
