Alice Cook, A Willing Tree, 2014 |
My local artist's association has a exhibition going which focuses on the tree. Trees give us so much, from oxygen to houses, and many things in between. For this exhibit I decided to simply do a solitary oak tree in pastel. First the sky and ground were laid in and tree drawn upon them. Layer upon layer went into making the tree with various greens, browns and black. Initially the tree was coming together rather representational, but the need to make it my own required some further tweaking. Sometimes, less is more. Enjoy!
