I decided to work on a new painting today. I thought I would do a watercolor painting, but it seems old habits die hard. My watercolor turned into an acrylic style painting. Guess I will have to keep on practicing! The painting is of three big cherry trees in the field on my uncle’s farm. The fence along the lane had some great red raspberry bushes. I am afraid mine turned out looking more like roses. Oh well.
Bing cherry trees
stand tall on the hillside
silhouetted against the mountain
Red raspberries cling to the old fence row
Ripening, ready for picking on the Fourth of July
Watercolor
turns into an acrylic
