This painting started life as a watercolor that needed help, so I coated it with sanded gel and redid the problems with pastel. I am very pleased with the result.
The scene is one from a sketch and reference photos from the Arboretum paint out. Early and late in the day, the sun casts the background in shadows but pours bright sunlight on the outer and higher branches of the trees next to the pond. This gives me the opportunity to deal with values by changing the colors, using deep purple for the dark greens and grays.
