This is a painting I did maybe a year ago, one of those paintings where it suddenly announces, mid brush stroke, that it is done. I especially like that midpoint on the tree where the trunk gets mixed up with the sky. 5x7
I wanted to do a larger version of it and here it is. I like various parts of it but to me they don't work well together. Except for the sky which I like a lot. 9x12
These are three horizontals I did to get the feel of various blues. I've never given blue its due, a few swatches a little water and that would do for a sky. What I particularly liked about the sky behind the tree was the way it granulated, so I decided to try something with a lot of sky.
So here it is so far the sky is ok, and I think I can work with that, well, hill. The painting and the photo I took, do not have that pink, so I am thinking the reason for the off colors is not our photos, it is Blogspot. 9x12
