Fall 2017

Each year I try to paint an autumn-landscape. Problem is  the complexity  of color, all kind of branches going different ways etc.
After seeing a you tube video of Michael  James Smith
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FW9IMQ59A0, I knew how to start a complex painting.
Of course you don't copy a painting, but it really helps to discover how to handle a problem.
Like Michael I started the painting from back to fore-ground, put a lot of layers  over the former layer of paint.
I wanted to let the viewer feel the thickness of all the leaves laying on the ground. See the sun coming trough the leaves at the right.
