In my country there are olive trees in the nature Age thousands of years.
One Quarter Progression
I usually i draw a quick sketch to get the idea, the direction or choose from the options.

Thereby creating strong contrast between the living Areas and the dead wood.
in Order not to heat and dry the parts of the dead wood quickly, it causes cracks in unwanted places, such as cracks that are not according to the natural flow of the tree bar
And the second thing, Create movement in Long left Branch.I took a risk in doing that I worked on the front, because the front of the entire Bark is a Live, but from my experience with olive trees I know, in general olive trees, get along well with the removal of part of the life vein .
Half Way Progression
After I finished with the bark, I went to design the branches of the tree. The branch in left is relatively thick, got slight long movement. the Remaining branches, put in place and shortened to the contour desirable, that is a triangle.
Three Quarter Progression
Overall the tree lost only two small branches I think that in four months the tree will grow more leaves and branches.
