Easy Being Green

 

 

 

 

Painted for DPW's "Green" challenge.

 Being spring, when everything is shades of green,

 from the moss on the tree trunks, to the new grasses and leaves on the trees,

 it was pretty easy to paint this one.

 I walk/hike almost everyday in this county park near where I live.

  So I took this picture with my phone as I neared the river,

 because I liked the scene;

and used it to paint this painting.

Fall in an Evergreen Forest

The riotous reds and oranges of Vine Maple 

add an explosion of color to fall in an evergreen forest, 

where the trees are all green except for some Big Leaf Maples 

which turn a golden yellow. 

I began this painting as an 'en plein air' work in acrylics 

when I was camping this fall. 

I added the details to it in my studio with oils.
