New! Slipping Between the Notes

With this new tree painting Slipping Between the Notes, the “notes” are the leaves on the trees. My intention was to paint a sunny, happy forest that tempted you to come in and play.

Will you please join me here, running around and slipping between the notes?

Here are some in-progress pics for this painting –

: I started by putting a fresh canvas flat on a table. I used lots of drippy paints and tilted the canvas as needed to spread the colors. Then it was left overnight to dry.

: Next I painted in the tree trunks, and added bigger blocks of sunny colors throughout.

: I started defining the leaves more clearly (see the middle of the painting).
