Pecan Leaves

9" x 12" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas

Contemporary Abstract

I have a studio mate who might share a photo or drawing or idea with me, and we both paint in our own styles.  My studio mate S. brought a pecan leaf, and I had fun abstracting it and using a different color palette. First I started with a toned canvas.  I think it was Cad Orange.  Then I drew some big shapes with a willow charcoal stick.  I limited myself to three greens for the leaves, and simplified the viens that were running through the leaves.  Here's my finished product...it is always fun to see how others interpret and see things differently - that's why I like paint challenges.  Thanks for looking.....Kay
