Description
I thought I was almost done with this painting, and then a loving but trying to be the objective observer, my husband, asked about a few things. They were valid points. At the same time, I saw a Facebook post with Erin Hanson’s most recent work. Trees in a field with the sun shining behind them. So simple it could be about anywhere. Yet the colors and shadows, the way she handled the light coming through the trees was stunning. I looked at the live oak trees in the foreground. They were not happy little trees. The next morning I was back at the canvas trying to correct some problem spots. And I felt like I was spinning my wheels. I added shadows on the street, hated the angle and covered them up. Tried a horse and buggy that looked like a blob teacher to a dog. Covered up. Measured and painted over some areas. Put more color in the trees. (The genius of Hanson’s work is the vibrancy and color when it might be lacking in real life.)
Improvements were made, and I think it’s time to move onto the next canvas.
The scene is another from Celebration. standing at the corner of Celebration Ave and Market Street looking towards the lake.
