Wood grain




I know I should have started another topic in tips, but I didn't think the question was worth a whole subject line. How DO you do wood graining with a single stroke? I know there is NO right answer, depends on the type of wood etc. but I'm looking for a place to start. I just finished a still life with a high polish wooden kitchen table. Getting the grain, and the reflections and the perspective was a real bite. I'd like to do this type of setting in a more "painterly" style one of these days, but wood grain puts me off.

Any tips to start my practice ?
