Since nobody else is posting I will post again to fill that vacuum because you know how Mother Nature feels about vacuums. Had a little visit to the Art Institute this Sunday and wandered into a little nook chock full of John Constable and his ilk. Trees, trees, trees, magnificent trees, magnificently painted trees, proud and plaintive. I took photos, came back the next day and took more. I have about eight of them and I am going to do sketches of them on 5x7 yupo. I had second thoughts yesterday, won't I be just copying? But of course I don't have the ability to do that. I will just start out that way and after that I will leave my ship to the tides and the storms like I always do.
I just finished the first one this morning, and of course I think it's great. Here it is.
And speaking of the Art Institute, you have to make a trip out there soon and see this:

I think it's great too. Yes, this is what trees on Yupo should be!
