Clinging Leaves Two - SOLD


Clinging Leaves Two
Oil on Canvas Panel, 12" x 12"
SOLD.

I wanted to do another one, same size, from the same reference photo (my daughter's yard in Massachusetts), and this time spend more time on the tree trunks. I think it's interesting how two painings can turn out so differently, same hand, same size, same reference.
