Reflections (Oil Bar Painting as of August 12, 2013), a photo by randubnick on Flickr.

This is my oil bar painting, still a work-in-progress, as it looked on Monday, August 12. This landscape is based on a photo that I took at Bradley Palmer State Park, near the Willowdale Estate (photo posted here June 14, 2013.) Several days prior, I had revised that tree so that only the branches were visible, and the trunk was "off stage" to the left. So on Monday, I spent most of my time reworking the branches and repainting the sky. Progress is slow because I am being careful, but I feel like I am getting somewhere.
