I was on my way to paint the sea today but the shine of this weeping willow has caught my attention and I had to spend the afternoon with him!

The first step has been to add all the elements in the composition and in this case (this is not always the case), start at the background.

I do not usually follow an order when painting, I mean, at the moment that I am already focused on a specific place for a long time, although I need more work and I am comfortable at that moment, I jump to another place. So I avoid overworking an area. If then, when everything is painted it needs more work I will add it without problem, but if it happens is more difficult to remove it and it will always leave a mark.
