It is often difficult to decide what my next painting project should be. I recently painted three paintings of groups of trees, experimenting with color and design. I have decided to paint a single red tree next, not a group of trees. I will paint it in a loose, impressionist style.
Yesterday I watched an old movie called Lust For Life which was a movie about Vincent Van Gogh. The movie got me to thinking about Van Gogh's use of color and made me want to jump in and paint with lots of vivid color and strong impasto application of the paint.
