Yeah, that dappled shadowing from the tree is really nice. This is a nice capture of the veteran aspect of the 4th. Very nice work!
One thing I notice is that the foreground trees look autumnal in color, especially when contrasted with the more distant trees. Is that by design? I’ve noticed that several of your works have an overall warm coloration.
Very nice. I love the americana look of this. I also am curious about the trees in the foreground. They do look more like October than July. Perhaps a metaphor for the autumn years of the vet?
Thanks Michelle, George, Lamar, jow, and Elaine. Elaine, I really like the metaphor for autumn years. To tell you the truth, I think it may be a young red oak. but not sure.
