Haybales Galore
The hay bales are everywhere here in Tennessee. I will once again paint them until the cows come home. This one was painted on Tuesday afternoon. Clouds were encroaching on the battlefield. I plan to paint several larger plein air pieces this summer. I have ordered two dozen larger panels. Oh yeah, and some larger brushes.

On the hi-res view, I keep staring at the subtle temperature/value transitions in the trees. Maybe if I stare long enough I'll learn by osmosis.
ReplyDeleteAwesome painting Jason! I didn't realize how difficult hay bales are to paint until I tried them on location. They have to lay just right to look convincing, and you do them so well.
ReplyDeleteJason,
ReplyDeleteGreat painting! You guys are lucky to have round bales. I love the geometric shapes they make. In Idaho we only have square bales (not as interesting in my opinion?. Thanks for posting...I'd love to see a similar pic of one of your stil lifes. Thanks for posting!
