Description
Started August 2nd, 2017 during a plein air meet-up, this painting, like the previous one, wasn’t satisfactory as a finished alla prima painting, but it was a good start. In the studio I was able to find an appealing resolution, with the most significant changes made by varying the impasto and temperatures of light and improving the drawing and arrangement of the hanging branches.
