Tree and Hillside (Appleton Farms) Oil Bar Painting

Over the past few days, I have been getting this painting ready for hanging.  It was accepted for the Artists of Porter Mill show, opening next week.  A few days ago, I sealed the edges with oil bar, and then waited for the paint to dry.  It seemed to take forever, but this morning I was able to take the painting to the studio at Porter Mill and add wire for hanging. This is how my painting looked when I left it on the floor of the gallery, on brown paper.  I made a last-minute change to the title because local folks might be interested to know that this is based on a photo that I took at Appleton Farms, in Ipswich.
