Painting an abstract landscape, start to finish.

The Voices of the Trees, 24x48", $900 | visit wessf.com for more info.
When I started this one, the bright colors I used were simply going to be an under-painting for the more realistic landscape to come, but after I added the tree trunks on the left side, I knew it had to be a colorful abstract landscape. So I just went with it. It was like the trees had voices and wanted their own thing. The Voices of the Trees.

I’m three minutes in but already have to say how fun it is to watch this come alive!

Thank you!

Love an artist who isn't afraid of big brushes, a bright palette and bold strokes. I'm such a terrible procrastinator which produces very few artworks. I learned a lot from this video. I rarely subscribe to anything, but happy to do so in your case. Thanks for sharing your process. 👍

[@wessf]

I procrastinate plenty. Thanks for the kind words!

Absolutely gorgeous

Awesome video, awesome painting. The video just showed up in my stream. I'm glad it did. I'm a painter all my life. I like watching other painters. So many of my paintings are abstract landscapes to begin. Sometimes they end up totally abstracted, but usually the landscape is apparent, if mostly to me.

Thanks Robert! I like watching other painters as well . . . unless they're too precious about every brushstroke :-)
