Shape diversity

This weekend I did spend some time at the shores of the Great Belt. I have realised that the diversity of possible plant shapes are even larger than the diversity of shapes I created in my sketches of imaginary plants. I found a wide variation of beautiful entangled form, the result of an evolution guided by the harsh environment of salt, wind and sea.

Plant (2) - The shape of leaves

Does leaves have a pointed shape? Of course - not all leaves are pointed, but when I draw leaves as a long narrow shapes with a pointed end, the drawings seems to become more realistic.
