Autumn trees are my favorite. So back at taking pictures and trying to paint em. I remember spending hours on trees to get them this far. Progress! Plus this time I noticed highlights I never noticed before so I tried to capture that for the first time.
How’d I do?

Oh I didn’t even think to do that. Sometimes I show I’m an old man 😂
And I love it! Feels happy and something I’d want to see in the morning as I start my day.
Thanks. I show my wife your time lapse, she says I need to learn to do my art like you (it at least a little). I’ve got more ideas than talent, though. I’m working on a autumn night version right now. I did one tinker you style, for a more abstract version.
You’ll get there!
Below is my first attempt at a detailed tree from just over a year ago. And then I painted a few trees a day for several weeks while looking at other people’s paintings to see what I needed to do to get better.
Thanks. Happy Friday 13th!
Oh crap, is that why all flights in the US have been cancelled/grounded?
