Paint, Paint, Paint


I am getting lots of painting in these days.  I am getting out at least three times a week so I should be improving.  It seems the more I paint the harder I try and the more frustrating it gets when things don't work the way I want them to.  I am learning a lot about scraping and wiping paint off my board.

This was painted Monday afternoon.  It is an old wild apple tree just before the blossoms start to form.  It was suggested that I carry the mid ground green all the way over to the left side of the painting and looking at it here I think that I have to agree.

It was an exercise in dry brush and scumbling techniques and I am happy with the result.

I hope to head back to the same location next week to catch the tree in full bloom.
