Pergola at Long Hill (Oil Bar Painting)



Here's my oil bar painting as it looked on October 12, 2022, the day I finished it.  I made too many small adjustments to list here.  I added to the foliage around the Pergola.  I adjusted the shape of the pink tree. I toned down the yellow light where the sunshine hits the pergola.  And I changed the light of the sky from pale blue to pale yellow.  I pronounced this painting finished, with just enough time to spare to let it dry, sign it and attach a wire for hanging. This is how it looked when I delivered to the Beverly Historical Society just two days later, narrowly making the deadline for their show, "Icons, Myths, and Legends of Beverly," running from October 21st to December 17th.
