Although
I've worked on it for several more hours this week, the kind of subtle tonal
adjustments I'm making, mean that the differences from last week might not be
so apparent, so I haven't included the overall view, here.
However,
I'm managing not to get bogged down in detail and bringing the whole painting
on at a uniform rate to maintain the overall balance.
The
leaf litter and structure of the roots have become more resolved in parts, but
I'm not going to labour over them.
The
dark area behind the trunk has started to see some foliage in a muted green,
and I decided to soften the curve of the bare trunk on the left edge of the
tree hole.
I
sanded back some of the paint on the trunk.
This revealed a nice texture and also enabled me to soften the edges of
some of the dappled light and shade.
This
week, I'll be working mainly on the bluebells and background foliage, which
should really start to pull it all together.
