Yes, I paint other things...I thought I'd share some other things that I do. I was really focused on NOT making this a photo realistic painting when I did it last year. I had fallen into that trap. It is easier to be a bit more expressive when I do trees, but with other things I tend to lean towards painting like the people I studied under at the time. I think it is important to know you CAN do it if you wanted, and once you have done the "realistic" thing it is more fun (in my opinion) to interpret it differently. I wanted to have more loose strokes, but ended up being happy with "Three Pears" because of the way I loosely applied the highlights on the top. HA. Doesn't take much to make me happy! I think I am still on a road to loosen up and interpret more, but for now, this is good...
