So, here it finally is. I've been working on this painting since November 2006. It's 3'x3' oil on canvas. It is one of the monster commissioned pieces that I've been working on lately, so it is not for sale since it already has a home.
To date, this is the largest landscape painting that I've completed. Unlike most of the smaller paintings that I've been posting and selling on this blog, this painting was completed with the use of reference photos, a practice from which I've been trying to minimalize. Working from life is best, but sometimes you just can't manage it. This cypress grove is just off the interstate outside of Conway, and painting from the shoulder of the road just wasn't an option.

It's beautiful! I also really like your Yellow Guys that are showcased occasionally over on the Devil Queen. :)
Love the mood.
Laikabear, thanks! Glad you like the yellow-heads, hopefully there will be more of them in the future.
Jenn, thanks!
