Continuing with painting more foliage and trees etc for a while this one will be hopefully quite dramatic when I start to get the colour down. I lived in Richmond many years ago and often walked in the extensive Richmond park nearby, in fact sometimes I walked through to Wimbledon Common which you can do once you cross a road, it's pretty much continuous. Planning on thicker paint with a bit more texture than normal... but we'll see, these paintings seem to have a will of their own!
This is the tonal underpainting stage which was first "drawn up" with a small bristle brush using a mix of Burnt Sienna, Transparent Oxide Red and Winsor Violet thinned with Liquin and then the same paint mix was applied with a rag when the "drawing" was dry in the afternoon
