Here is the third installment of the Trees series...I know we're all getting a little tired of trees...I promise a change in thought starting tomorrow! However, it's eleventy five degrees in Minnesota and my yard is somehow full of leaves....which makes me think of trees and global climate change...but I don't have any paintings of Al Gore...so you get more trees!
This is a rather small painting...quaint if you will, fit for a breakfast nook or study, or above a toilet for that matter. The concept, as usual, started with the background. I used five different shades ranging from straight green to straight blue.
First, I blended the colors with a wide brush. Once the blending was complete I went with a thick brush and produced a stippling effect to give it a bit more depth. I added some green that creeps up the middle of the painting and fades into the blue.
Once the background was finished I just couldn't resist the allure of those snow white trees.
