Sun Through Spring Trees

Sun On Spring Trees / 6×8 in / oil on wood / $180

This is another painting of the same scene from yesterday. Yesterday I painted a bit of the river that was unobscured by the trees, and today I painted a bit that is obscured by trees. I find through the trees scenes difficult to paint, but I really enjoy them. I like this painting – the horizontal planes in the background and the vertical silhouette in the foreground, and that pallet. I am starting to really enjoy this extremely limited pallet.(#3330)

It is amazing that you are able to get so many different shades with this palette. I like the reedy stillness of this portion of the river. Very nice!
