Hello! This was a first for me in a few ways. I usually plan each painting with thumbnail sketches, etc. This one, I winged it and completed it in one day. I have not done that before. In addition it is only an 11 x 14, the smallest landscape I have done as well. I just loved this old scraggily tree hanging off the edge of the cliff in Sedona, AZ. Hope you like it. Lucy.

Hi Lucy,
Your "winging it" style works great!
Not that your other work isn't great too.
Keep it up!

Nice work, Lucy!
I like the distance and feeling of 'up high, on the edge' in this one...

The tree is great against the hills in the back. What a nice painting.

Wing it girl! I like to do it that way, of course some things require those sketches like the one I am working on now but I think you did a most excellent job. I love the distant hills! Very nice.
