This painting is very relaxing, nice and cool... I like how you made the grasses lead your eye to the tree... what a  beautiful tree!  Very nice grays...

Thanks, Li. This painting is all about the tree. These trees are incredible; they live on these craggy outcropings into the ocean. Very hardy and very colorful. Stu

Nice painting, Stu.  I noticed the way you down played the distanced mountain, as well as the two trees at the front, one set back and the other one sent forward by changing their values.  Well done.
