Editor’s note: These sketches are taken from Cyd’s plant preparation homework assignments over the 2022-2023 school year. I was struck with the simple beauty of these sketches, the thinking-in-progress that surrounds them, as well as how the sketches grew in shape, form, and complexity over the course of the year.
