Bay Woods

This morning, I joined the Michigan Plein Air Painters to do some plein air painting inside Kensington Huron-Clinton Metroparks. I'm continuing to work on my brush skills and I'm pretty happy with this painting. At first, my plan was for the smaller central tree to be the focal point. But when I saw the large negative space to the left of it, I was reminded of how that area had a lot of Canadien Geese when we first arrived. So I quickly painted a couple of them in from memory. I think they make a better focal point.
