Here's an oil painting I did last year after a hike along the Four Mile Run trail in Arlington, Virginia. There was a nice curve in the stream and a sand bar had built up on one side. The county had installed large rocks on the opposite side to reduce erosion and there was a nice overhanging tree on the curve of the creek. There was so much green in the original photo that I used as a reference that it was tough simplifying the scene. I've been looking at it on my drying shelves since last fall and still can't figure out if it is done.
