Painting Aspens in the Fall


I made some adjustments to this painting. Some of my fellow artists over at Wet Canvas suggested that the leaves needed to have that golden glow of aspens in the fall as well as hinting at their distinctive shape. The photo I was working from was taken before peak so it was much greener. Which version do you prefer??

    Karen...I really like how you added the golden colors and the gesture of the leaves...I think it's perfect!

  2. I think the addition of the golden leaves gives the aspens movement. They are quaking aspens, right? :)

    Very nice, makes me homesick for the mountains.

  3. This one is perfect. The gold highlights really adds that extra touch.
