oil study #11

I love fir trees and wanted to paint this one, standing watch beside a rivulet, but it seems the smaller the format, the bigger the challenge. I've been working on this 6 x 6 inch oil study for a larger work (Northwest Afternoon) off and on for weeks. I'm happy with it now and am posting it to my Daily Paintworks Gallery where you can see it with the wonderful magnifier tool. Oil Study 11 is sold
