Fun color experiment with pastels finished / bent tree
This was so much fun to do on a snow day I want to try again with another subject. I didn’t know if it would work out or not. Last night I wasn’t sure if I liked it but this morning it looks ok to me. Yes, I did force color into a scene that would be more gray but to my eye it’s not a glaring forced color like when you see VIOLET (straight out of the tube) in the grass in a landscape. My forced color is “refined”. hahahahah
