Vine Maple

 

 

​This was painted en plein air,

in a campground where I stayed this summer,

 I added a few finishing touches in my studio.

This sunlit path led to my campsite

and was lined with Vine Maple

 just beginning to turn into it's spectacular fall colors.

It is glorious to see and a welcome break

 from all the greens one sees in the forest.

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.
