Autumn River

This is the last of three paintings I found in a box in the storage room earlier this month.

All it needed was to finish the dead and weathered cedar trees on the right side of the painting that were currently just "white sticks".

Using a mix of titanium white, ultramarine blue and burnt sienna I put the shadows on the trunks of the cedar trees. 
















With a fine brush I carefully put in the dead limbs onto the tree trunks. 

Lastly, I put a few reflections into the quiet water near the base of the cedar tree trunks.

This original 16" x 20" acrylic painting when framed will be available for $375.00.
