Plein-air painting
Oil on linen-faced board in a light wood tray frame 24 x 18 cm (27 x 21 cm frame)
In the afternoon, still enjoying the heat and taking a simpler approach, eyes scrunched to try not to see too much detail! The texture of the bark when sat under the tree seems quite light but the bright scene beyond pushed me to paint the bark darker. This time I worked on a yellow background and felt more cheerful!
