While "The Gathering" dries before I scan and post it I thought that I would start another tree painting, this one set in Winter and quite cold and desaturated. Again it has it's roots in a Midjourney piece that somehow triggered the idea of a dour castle in the background with the title arriving out of the ether the moment I thought of a castle going in there. I have a few directions I can go with the lighting of this one and will make the final decision over tomorrow morning's breakfast coffee.
This is the tonal underpainting stage using a mix of Burnt Sienna and Dioxazine Purple thinned with Liquin and applied with a rag and a flat brush.
Oil on fine cotton 16" x 12".
