san pedro aspens

This is my first "real" painting. And by real, I mean I chose the subject, from a photograph I took, and it wasn't a tutorial. I did get guidance from my art teacher.


I painted this using liquitex and Golden Acrylics on 18x24 canvas board.  It's from a photograph I took when I went trail running on the Bacas trail.   I'm always struck by the aspens when I'm running among them. They're extremely straight and tall. I wanted to capture that in this painting.
