Tree Series: Madrone in Spring


This painting is 4 feet high and 3 feet wide and vibrates with color. It is almost completed, except for final layers of green and details. Each green shape has at least 4 layers of acrylic paint on it, which have to dry before the next layer. Green is the most fiddly color to work with, in my opinion, but looks great once I commit to smoothing it out. I see lots of birds and frogs in the leaves and undergrowth. The irises bloomed as well!
