A small orange bird with blue-green plumes sits in the branches of a blue tree. The branches are highly complex. Hanging down from one of the lower branches is a yellow apple. The tree has equally intricate indigo roots. The entire drawing is set on a dark starry background. A round white moon hangs in the sky.

A vast forest: mountain after mountain of heavy trees. The sky is indigo fading into the clear blue of an early dawn. Hovering above the purple trees is a black helicopter, a red light on the tail and a green light on its underbelly. The helicopter is pointing the brilliant white cone of a spotlight down into the trees below. Someone is looking for something.

A dark night. Rearing up out of the ground is what appears to be a tree, although it's hard to make out in the gloom. The tree does not have any branches, it's just a winding trunk, extending upward. Hanging in the sky, right behind the tree, is a large orange moon with a smiley-face on it. Below, to the left of the tree, emerging out of the gloom, is a figure wearing a tall hat and carrying a lantern, which casts an orange light on the trunk of the tree. The figure is dimly illuminated by both the lantern and the smiling moon in the sky. The drawing is black ink on a dark blue background. The moon is orange; the lantern and lantern light is yellow.

A forest at night: the full moon high in the sky, and a black wall of narrow, twisted pines. A low fog hangs over a path. Walking along the path, on the right side of the drawing, is a person holding a walking stick, the moonlight reflecting off them. They are going to need that stick, because creeping directly behind them, crouched and ready, is something else: something vaguely humanoid but furry and brutish; something that does not look like it comes out during the day. The drawing is black ink on a dark teal background. The moon and the moonlight are white.

An eerie scene. A tall, spindly figure and a thick, crooked tree stand silhouetted against an unsettling green light: the atmosphere of a foggy wood or swamp at night. The figure stands on the left; the tree is on the right. The figure carries a small briefcase or lunchbox in one hand, and has a broom in the other. The unevenness of the ground suggests a swamp or wild area.

A lonely, sharp mountain top on which stands a small, twisted tree with few branches and no leaves. Hanging from the tree is a mailbox and a red decorative sphere. Built into the branches is a small, spherical dwelling that looks a little like a wasp nest. The dwelling has a circular window in it, brightly lit. Also built into the branches is a platform with several brown cardboard boxes stacked on top of it; the kind that would be delivered from Amazon.

A grassy hilltop, except it's a man with a huge long beard. The man's head is like a boulder sticking up from the hilltop. The man's head looks mostly shaved, except for a grassy area on the top like hair. On top of the man's head stands a small figure holding binoculars, watching a bird circle overhead.

A stump of a tree stands near a flat, grassless riverbank. The stump has a branch that sticks far out. Draped over it is an iPhone, the screen displaying colored icons. The iPhone is draped like a towel, bent over the branch as though it's made of rubber. The sky looks like either dawn or dusk: pink clouds, and the ghost of a moon high up in the sky.

A person stands in the wilderness at night. The person's legs are tree trunks with roots.

A swing hangs from a tree at night, a small pond nearby. The full moon reflects eerily in the pond.
