Notes From My Tree Painting Journal
I recently got back from a painting residency in Crystal River, where I spent 6 days out looking at and painting studies of the marshes. The thing that I wanted to study the most was the atmospheric quality and depth of these large flat vistas. I also put in quite a bit of time studying unusual color in the cloud formations over the marshes. Late in the day I saw quite a few yellow and orange creamsicle color in the billowing cloud formations as they began to heat up and grow spectacularly.
Now that I am back in the painting studio, I'm using some of that observation in my tree paintings as well. Here is a marsh painting done in studio since I returned home.
