Here's a slightly blurry sneak peek at the landscape I'm currently working on. It's been very overcast here, so my camera wasn't letting me get crisp photos. This leaf/tree has only been pressed, the colors have not been enhanced yet. Isn't it gorgeous?! It's a leaf from the forsythia bush after it was touched by frost.
This painting has more texture than the previous landscapes I've done recently. I do love that texture! But my challenge to myself is to keep it simple, and that's not as easy as it sounds.
Today I'm working on adjusting the colors quite a bit, so it can be a companion to this painting,
which I described in a previous post here.
So, when this one is done, there will be one more 12" x 12" landscape to finish before I begin to work on something more portable. When I paint these acrylic pieces, I need to move everything to the kitchen table, and then put it all away again. Something easier to work on in short bursts would be a nice change.
