willow creek
(8x10)
Painted on location at willow Creek Winery in West Cape May.
It was a beautiful day and always a fun challenge to paint outdoors ... Still trying to find the way to paint trees! Perhaps that's a lifelong endeavor.
These look like TREES to me.. This too has been my problem, that's why I'm taking my 'first ever' workshop in a few weeks.. Landscapes with trees has never been good for me.. I think the less put in the better... but then again what do I know ? LOL Thanks so much for visiting and your encouraging words. YOU have always been an inspiration to me... You were missed .

I agree, they look like trees and have some great texture and color on them. Perhaps paint a tree a week to get in the habit of seeing the shapes? I like what you're doing with them = not too loose or too tight.

Trees can be a nightmare but these are great and love the bark.
