Ellison Park Winter

This is an studio painting of Ellison Park, not too far from our daughter's house. It's a very dramatic piece in acrylic using high contrasts to exaggerate a winter's day. You can feel that COLD ! 

I applied a glazing technique with acrylic medium. So there are lots of transparent layers which show all the subtle colors at play. The focal point is the intersection where the tree meets the orange bush.

Since I love the "square" format, I painted this in that shape. This piece is large for me and it measures 24"x24". It is framed in a contemporary, crisp, black frame.
