Spring Canopy, 12 x 12
Spring in Austin is my favorite. The weather is amazing and it completely makes you want to be outside. The greens are amazing as well, and developing a broad enough range of them to mimic reality is difficult. These trees had just recently leafed out and were creating a really appealing covered path at Spicewood Farms the other day.

Julie,
I love the vibrancy of this piece. You really nailed those bright, spring colors.
You really captured feeling of the spring here.
My honest feedback: I would like to see little more variations of green shades. How about making forefront trees a little darker - especially the bottom areas? The path looks really good. I like the shadows on the path too.
Wow! This one is really great. Amazing colors!
I liked this painting when I saw it in the kitchen. I love trees that grow over roads and streets. I like the reds in the foreground and the way my eyes is drawn to and down the road.

Peter,
I totally agree with you. As soon as I finished painting and got out of "the zone," I felt the same way--glad to know I was spot on. Thanks for the constructive comments.
I love the feeling of this canopy of trees - it just pulls you right in!
