In the Company of Trees
This 14" x 11" oil on gessoed panel was started in Greensburg Park during the paint out last Friday, 8-3-12. I blocked in the basic shapes and colors using brushes and palette knives while standing under the tree. I really liked the way the light was filtering through the branches of the tree and I was able to capture some good photos of the tree before I left for the day.
I have started a few other sketches in my journal from these photos. I plan on working on a much larger scale when I get a fuller sense of the direction for this series of trees. I'm envisioning many more layers of paint and multiple divisions of shapes. More divisions of shapes = increasing color divisions, as well.
Please leave comments or questions in the space provided below.
This is a work in progress!
