"Arizona Sunset" Desert Landscape Oil Painting by Arizona Artist Mary Opat


"Arizona Sunset" Desert Landscape Oil Painting by
Arizona Artist Mary Opat

18" x 14" Oil on Stretched Linen

I finished this one today.  I started it a few months ago and got
stuck on how to make the foreground and tree look more natural.  The
trick was to pick up some very dark paint and then scrub it in with the side
of my brush.  A little lighter green scrubbed in here and there over the front
bushes seemed to do it.  Who knew ?  Maybe I'll take on more landscapes!

Life is Art...Paint Your Dreams!
