i have lived from Oklahoma to Florida. Seen Beau Ceaux Powerful tornados in Oklahoma..i was there in Nashville the day waves of tornadoes starting 9am till 3pm bombarding the area..i was there in Mississippi had 35 tornadoes when Hurricane Camille barreled..it destroyed Delta City...did you know there is only one state in this nation that has tornadoes all year long? yep it's Florida..Im sure the folks in Carolina gets these bad tornadoes every now and then..sadly spending most of my life in the tornado belt i just dont get excited unless i hear a sound of a train coming..then i worry..lol..interesting creation. the body form and language is ok. the details is ok. the blend of the colors is good. the shading is good. the depth is good. i would recommend that the writing would really be better on the bottom as well as in a straight line format. (use a ruler). where you have placed it at is distracting to the viewer from the rest of your work. still the presentation is balanced and eye interesting to the viewer. still it is creative and good ob overall.

Devonte, nice to see you are back, no apologies necessary every one has a life. I see you are still sharing your stories of tornados and that you wish to change your drawing KISS usually keep it simple so that all can enjoy. detailed simple sketches work for me. Welcome back. Ray

Devonte, you did a really good job showing the destruction from the storm. The snapped trees, twisted trees and limbs with no leaves is a testimony to that.
You showed a man walking in the yard surveying the damage. Can you imagine his thoughts.
I also like how nice you did the house on the property.
Well done, wish I had a 6 star rating left.

A dramatic image posted here together with interesting notes too! Your fine and full composition gives us a good interpretation of the havoc caused there. Textures and tones are good. Nicely drawn!

Welcome back! Every drawing, no matter how simple or complex, is a unique reflection of the artist's thought process and first-hand experience. This drawing of yours tells a sad story of nature's fury.

A dramatic drawing of the damage done by tornadoes which are unpredictable and worse than hurricanes in my opinion. The colors and bleakness of the trees left by the damage is all telling.

I'm very glad you're back to Bunte. Hopefully wherever you went for work yoy did well! Composition, shades, tones, colors, and presentation is very well done having experience going through a tornado that was rather close to where my horse was boarded was one of the most scariest adventures I've ever been through. I can't imagine living in a tornado state. Bravo to the people that do. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much!! I still work there, it is at a University. Trying to understand my schedule which I finally did. That day stressed me out (I live in Eastern North Carolina). Fortunately no tornado hit my town but they were close. I am glad you are ok, and yes they are very scary

Welcome back , it's good to see you posting again.
I feel so bad for the people of North Carolina and it's sad to know how much they lost.
Your drawing shows the power of that tornado back in 2011, it literally twisted the tree and made it bend into a curve, and knocked the other tree right down.
Very well shown yard with green lawn and the other trees that were damaged. It is scary to see how close to the house this was.
Very well shown yard drawn to tell this sad story,
Well presented!

Thank you! That day had me stressed (I lived in Eastern North Carolina). Very sad and heartbreaking for those who lost everything. But fortunately all that was effected are doing so much better and thriving!
