The Tree

"The Tree" Alex and McCall requested a tree painting for their house in Waco. This tree went through many changes in shape and color. After seeing the spot it was intended for, I brightened it quite a bit.

This is mostly watercolor with gold acrylic

over stamped background.

I call this one "Excavating My Church" because it was my
first realistic  painting that I tore into three pieces and
proceeded to "abstract" it with paint and paper.
It went through so many additions.
