Carpinteria Avenue Trees - 8x8

There's something so wonderful about these trees, this is my second try at capturing them in paint.  I'm much happier with this attempt.  I approached it differently than I normally do, I started with what I can only call a "fuzzy" underpainting.  Sometimes I don't work with an underpainting at all, and other times it's completely necessary, and I can't really explain why...this is why I'm not a teacher :)

Clouds and Field - Landscape oil painting - 6x6

I was tried a different approach to this little painting, sometimes I feel like I just have to try something new....it doesn't always work, but I always learn from it.  I like how this one turned out though.  I started by covering the canvas with a very dark, almost  black solid wash.  Then I painted as usual but made sure to leave some parts unpainted....something I never do.
