 There is a beautiful tree at the NC Arboretum and it is the subject of today's painting. I paint a lot of trees but always struggle so I thought it would be good practice. It's harder than it looks. I try to start by looking at patterns of light and dark and paint the shapes and hope that it starts to take on some volume. It doesn't always work, but, as Bob Ross used to say, "Everyday is a good day when you paint!." For me that is so true.

AuthorI'm an fine art artist in Raleigh, North Carolina. I need a paintbrush in my hand to feel complete and I invite you to follow me on my art journey. Everyday brings new ideas and projects... there simply is not enough time... On December 1, 2012, I joined the community of artists who paint a painting each and every day. I haven't been able to keep up with the daily painting, but I'm trying hard to keep my paintbrushes busy. Archives
