Painting in Progress - Day 2

It was time to give more shape to the trees and clearly distinguish the path and the land. It started with a brush technique that I call as 'slashing". I had to keep slashing until I had the darkness I wished to portray.

Closer slashes to denote it to be a ton of trees clumped together and little gap to allow the sky light to fall in...

In order to show the slight slope on the land, I had to angle the strokes.

More to come in the final picture..
