Sunday Sketch

I painted this on Sunday but am posting it now. Not my favourite twisted tree image. I wanted to do more of a winter scene but I did less tree and more trunk, I don't likey, However, I know how I will develop this lack luster piece.

I am not quite ready to paint these images onto canvas, I am undecided if  I will go this route but I have time and I am enjoying the process. The enjoyment interests me more at this point.

Klimt inspired

Gustov Klimt inspired tree. Next time I want to do more detail. 

Sorry for the poor picture quality, I am photographing at night with poor lighting (only time I can do it) so there is a lot of light bouncing.

Tree Trunks

I painted this back in 2007 I can not believe it has been so long. I love this painting, sadly my camera action 

does not show the colours n its true sense. It is a large painting (I think 32x48 or close to).

Start of the painting Next stages of the painting

So my next project I am working on is this tree. The tree trunk is predominantly irredescent gold, a cold blue sky with light peeping through then falling leaves. The background, I think, is finished I need to do a lot more work on the foreground until I am happy with it.

Problem with artists is that they can keep working on a painting and still see things to work on, so I will have to have a cut off point when the times comes.


I will post more once I am closer to finishing.
