Leaning In, 8 x 10, oil on panel, L. Daniel © 2021
SOLD
This piece was one of my workshop demos from this past spring. We gathered on Lake Austin on a bit of an overcast day, and this leaning tree drew me in. I loved the way it was curtsying into the lake and how the reflections continued that graceful dipping movement.
The following photos show how this painting came together...
Block-in using dark neutral mix of ultramarine and burnt sienna.
Added color to upright planes, adjusting value as each recedes into distance.
Added sky plane and ground plane (including water which is ground plane.)
Add final details and spectral highlights at the very end.
Just getting started with block-in... using a light and loose touch.
