Green Pond
5.5" x 5.5"
Oil on Panel
A view at the Armond Bayou Nature Center. I did a plein air painting of this scene while I was there but the values were hard to get right do to the light changing so much and as you might see here the greens were all over the place. The difficult part for me to convey in the plein air painting was making the foreground tree seperate from the background. I got it right here in the studio painting as you can see there wasn't very much difference between the foreground and the background. The water was really an eye catcher with lush green reflections and the pond algae was floating around and the sun caught at different times. Another interesting reflection is the big lit up vertical one and also the sun lighting up the algae at the back side of the pond. It was a very peaceful pond.

Yes, there's a lot of green but I think you managed them quite well. I see planes and changes in direction. Very lush!
