Painting a tree in detail is my first time. I usually paint trees as background to support a center of focus, but this time I just want to do a tree painting. I thought painting a tree is not as interesting as painting a building or a figure, but the result makes me want to paint more trees. The scene was at the Lake Summerville State Park in Texas.
Qiang, It is a wonderful tree! You need to tone down the bird. The eye is drawn to that big black spot and distracts from everything else. Personally, I'd just eliminate it. It doesn't really add anything to the painting. Thank you, Karen
