Painting the unfamiliar
When I visit a place away from home, often the landscape and plant life are very different. Fan-shaped palm trees are one of those unfamiliar things to me. I struggle with them. They can be so complicated. I really want to be able to paint them well, so, I decided to do a quick study of just one tree. This is it.... not fantastic, but every time I do one I'll be more comfortable with it. I only give myself 45 minutes, that way I don't keep messing with it and making mud.
