Tree-A-Palooza

So this is a repaint of a piece I did about a year ago. Something about trees that I’m always drawn back to, maybe its the mindless amount of tiny lines you have to put in. Anyways this is one of my favorite piece i’ve done recently(I know I say that about every piece when its done) but this one was different cause I actually got a chance to practice shading which I never do.  This ones already sold but I had so much fun with it anyone else interested in one i’d love to do more!  Also there is few pictures of the process of this one. Im not sure what cause it but the light affected it so much. The background color changes in every picture and the glare was always there. It took like 100 tries but the finished picture turned out perfect!

Enjoy!

right side coming in, this piece was so weird because until the end it felt like it was so unbalanced with the amount of branches on each side

still super unbalanced

I have a horrible habit when I’m working on pieces like this with super fine lines, after I put in like 2 or 3 lines I lick the brush so the point is sharp again. By the end of 30 minutes of painting my mouth is always covered in black paint

All done! Shading was fun after I started to get the hang of it, and branch overlaps added so much to it. It looks good in the picture but cant even compare to it in person. So stoked
