I have finally surrendered to saturated colour. The photo for this painting was taken in early April but you would think it was high summer although possibly autumn under intense sunlight producing red and orange trees? Also a big blue tree, a bit of a fantasy landscape. I think I was always heading towards this but was never quite capable of pulling it off. Despite the intensely unnaturalistic palette of sherbet colours I think it is working quite well, primarily because the landscape forms are convincing and so is the space. The painting is finished.
Too many trees
