OSWOA - Sunset 1

This is a painting I had started last year (see posts on 08 February 2013 and 15 March 2013) and wanted to finish.

I started by painting in the main pine tree on the left side of the painting and then gradually adding in the background tree trunks.

I added more pine trees of various sizes along the ridge of snow and using a pale was of the pine needle colour lightly indicated the tree shadows on the snow.

Finally I added the grasses and growies to the base of the trees and in some areas of the snow.
