I felt so free with this one. I was more concerned with the illusion of light and the feeling of the trees, rather than the particular shapes and details.
The flu has seriously kicked my butt for the last few days, I can't remember the last time I felt this sick. The tylenol kicked in so I crawled up to my studio to make this quick post....will definitely not be painting today, but here's one I did last week:
Zach and I went to Pismo beach and up to Hearst Castle for our New Years weekend getaway. We stopped at the butterfly grove...I heard it was amazing. We came prepared with binoculars, but I think we only saw like 20 butterflies! Disappointing! Luckily we had lots of other things to do. And the light while we were there was just gorgeous.
I had the busiest day yesterday! I can't even believe how much I got done :) I slept SO well last night.
I chose to paint this little scene because I liked the shadows, sunset shadows are the best. And I liked the the dark telephone poles against the light colored sky.
