Day 622

Out in the fields surrounding the marsh are a number of dead or moribund trees, mostly covered with vines to the extent that it's difficult to tell whether they're alive or dead, and what id vine and what is tree. It's an interesting challenge to paint, since they lack even the structure of trees to give them organization. In this case, I tried painting them almost like crayon-scribble, by laying down thick paint on top of the thinly scrubbed in sky and then cutting back into it with the handle-end of the brush..
