Through the Trees

Painted sometime in the fall of 2004, at Mendon Ponds Park south of Rochester...it was a windy and cool day. I was struck by the vivid yellow foliage glowing behind a stand of trees, and tried to capture that. This 9x12 oil painting won and "Honorable Mention" award at the Suburban Rochester Art Club show in April, 2005. I felt somewhat daring putting that large tree right in the middle of the painting, but feel that it worked out OK.
