Here’s three stages and a close-up of a painting I did yesterday.
Initial under-painting.
Half-way there.

Detail
This draws on all the experience I’ve gained doing outdoor sketches in the last couple of years, combined with my love for farm tracks, grasses and trees.
I am really pleased with the way the abstract brush strokes fall together to create a believable scene that I think would be familiar to a lot of Aussies.
The title is temporary. If you have a suggestion for a better one, feel free to let me know in a comment.
UPDATE: I’ve settled on “Evening Shadows” for the title. A few minor adjustments were made later but I didn’t get a photo. Sorry.
