Summer’s End WIP3

Summer’s End – 36 x 48 – Acrylic on Wood

I really needed to see the light oranges and pastels in the context of the rest of the painting, so that’s where I went. :) I think it’s going to work well; the sun is hitting that patch and providing  a nice counterpoint to the foliage in deeper shadow. I want to balance it with some more foreground greens and also flesh out that lighter area more. I really like the way these colours are working together!

    It looks like this one is going to be so full of detail! I can’t wait to see it!

    I’m going to have to swing by Mayberry and see your Halliburton Morning piece up close and personal!

    Yeah, there’s a lot going on in this one! :) That would be cool if you saw my stuff at Mayberry – you could tell me how it looks – lol.
