Commission Painting - Oklahoma Barn

OKLAHOMA BARN
Watercolor 11x15
Commission
 
One of my favorite art collector's commissioned this painting of her wonderful barn on their farm in Oklahoma. I always feel honored when asked to paint something so important in people's lives.
It is always a challenge to paint a big area of greenery. As you can see in this close up of the trees, I used a variety of shades of green from kelly to oilve and used a sponge to create texture for the leaves.
