Oil painting - "A Hot Day," June 2003


A Hot Day

There's a pond just beyond this tree, over the hill, but the tree itself and the forest-y background really caught my eye. I painted the background literally by hand, using a fingerpainting technique to get it as soft as possible. Then I streaked in some Indian red to suggest the tree trunks. This is a relatively large painting, 24" x 24".
