This is new subject matter for me and a larger size than I normally work on also. I was intrigued by the wealth of visual information in the photo reference I worked from, and by the challenge to simplify it into something interesting. It was fun to paint because I love walking in pine forests; the wonderful smells add another layer of richness to the sights and sounds.
