Tree and Hillside (Oil Bar Painting as of February 25, 2015)


This is my oil bar painting in progress. I am working from photos that I took in October at Appleton Farms in Ipswich, MA. (Reference photos are posted on this site on January 2nd and 3rd.)  Today I worked on the hillside itself, which had a thin undercoat of paint.  I modified the color to make it a brighter and sweeter green, and now it is closer to what I want.  I also changed the shape of the hillside on the left of the canvas.  I had blocked in another stand of trees in the distance, but decided against it, so I painted over them.
