WDE 2nd June - River

It's been a while since I took part in one of these, but I really enjoyed doing this. Wasn't sure how to handle the tangle of trees and branches so I made it into a full blown autumn scene (anyhow you know I love colour!).

16" x 20" acrylic on canvas. First is at 2 hours. Second is about another 1 1/2.

Wow! Looks like you untangled the trees. I love how your underpainting color shows through. Fantastic job on the water and grass.
