Grape Arbor (Oil Bar Painting as of Apr. 11, 2014)




One more day working on this painting.  I am using oil bars to paint this grape arbor; my reference is a photo that I took at Long Hill Gardens, here in Beverly, MA (posted here on Mar. 20).  Today I began by adding suggestions of leaf veins in a few places. I repainted some of the branches, and fixed any problems that I saw in the grapes.  At this point, the painting is very nearly done. Tomorrow I plan to fix a few details in the structure of the grape arbor, and then I will start sealing the canvas (painting the edges).
