I focused mainly on large masses of light and shadow, as well as capturing depth through adding blue into the trees farther away from us. In art class, we learn a lot about atmospheric perspective. I really liked painting nature during COVID because it helped to take my mind away from everything and transport myself somewhere sunny. This piece was inspired by old master’s painting.
