Oil on Canvas

Maple Shadow Frame

I worked on this painting for years (very unusual for me) to get the perfect sunshine feel I wanted in this piece. It took me far more time than normal to nail what I was hoping for, and I even had to literally sand some images out that simply did not work and when you are an artist, it is the hard ones that you learn from and this piece taught me a lot! It is not easy to keep plugging away on a piece normally, but for some reason I just did not let this one go. Finally, it is one of my favorite pieces. The focal point wanders in this piece that keeps me looking at it with renewed interest, every time.
