Such realistic colors! Great texture of the bark and road and nice impressionistic brush strokes in the foliage and on the ground.

Super success with old trees! Nice highlights and careful light direction.

Fantastic texture!

Thank you for your kind comment sunnylady. I will have to take a better picture using the technique you suggested a while ago. Happy painting. I enjoyed learning to paint old stuff

What size is the canvas?

Hi Felix, it's not a canvas its a piece of a3 paper. I don't have my new easel here so painting on the table again !

I have uploaded another photo in normal light, doesn't really look much different but doesn't look like actual painting either ! oh well I will try and finish it later today

Wonderful trees! The highlights are amazing and I love the multicolored leaves on the ground.

Lilikins Thank you for your kind comments . I though the leaves looked a bit like someone had split a packet of M and Ms.
