Leaves and Spiders!

: Trying out something new and more abstract. This painting will still be tree-like, as you’ll see soon . . .

: Adding more ‘leaves’

: Still more ‘leaves’. This is quite experimental, still not sure where it will land up at this stage . . .

: Got some reference photos for branches, and will use those as inspiration. Stay tuned!

: Started adding some branches. Still not sure how this painting will turn out!

: I like the branches but they are too dark and need to be softened.

: Finished! I wanted the feeling of light through the branches. Whisper’s Embrace, Mixed media painting by Holly Van Hart, 48 x 48 inches.
