I just returned from a few weeks in the mountains of western North Carolina. We had an October trip to take in the beautiful fall colors, which we really enjoyed. Most years I have to be satisfied with our Florida type of tree. They have a beauty of their own....not really big leaves or bright colors, but graceful palms and huge live oaks draped in Spanish moss and with limbs that seem to be a mile long.

I painted this with a palette knife and I used a technique I call "color weaving". It gives me lots of texture and I can get really subtle color changes. I have a nice wide molding in a dark wood tone that I will use to frame this one. I think it will make it pop off the wall! |
