It was late fall and the trees were mostly bare but lots of little branches so I wanted to paint them as a mass and not give them too much detail. I started them in a loose way with muted colour and then negative painted the sky around them. Then I popped in some brighter colour to punch it up.Amanda Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17316433218408677789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2815710009777353355.post-58178460778362795972010-04-19T08:04:29.991-07:002010-04-19T08:04:29.991-07:00Amanda - whoa.

And your clump of trees is great. The motion and the colours (especially those streaks of lavender) are really well done. I keep staring at the way you've done those branches and bits of leaves...Kim Rempelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10010163424578410675noreply@blogger.com
