Greenery, Round One

Yesterday I tackled the trees. Six hours of painting, with a break in the middle to get a pot of chili started. I don't seem to ever be able to paint for more than six hours at a time.



I don't know how well the colors come across on your screen, but in real life the greens have too much yellow and brown. Or maybe too many yellows. There's a chaos to the greens of the trees right now. It could take me a couple of days to decide what to do about it. I might stop by the Mattatuck to revisit their Inness painting, which is a beautiful medley of green. I want harmony, not discord.
