Autumn trees are my favorite. So back at taking pictures and trying to paint em. I remember spending hours on trees to get them this far. Progress! Plus this time I noticed highlights I never noticed before so I tried to capture that for the first time.

How’d I do?

    I’ve been painting the tree in my front yard all year. I have 1 autumn version, but ready to do another. Your time lapse is great to see how you did this. I’ve been trying to do better. My wife says my prayers is my best because it shows depth. I’ve done abstract versions of my tree, too. I like both approaches (realistic and abstract).

    Love the colors and the highlights definitely help give it more dimensionality.

    You did treemendously.

    Apologies for the awful pun. As a sort of “speed painting”, that’s expectionally good though - there’s a lot of colour, light and shadow you’ve packed into that in a short amount of time.

    Yeahhhh this is gorgeous. Coming from the kind of weirdo who remembers the most beautiful trees from eras of my life, better than the people sometimes - ya really captured it, for me.

    I love trees, then I’m reminded their leaves with be my problem and then I’m ambivalent towards them for a bit.

        Actually no! Township doesn’t want huge piles of leaves so we have to thin them out so that means we have to ask the guy who does that to do that, and I have to give him many jars of candied jalapenos and I don’t have any jars of candied jalapenos currently so I have to can more!
