Elm fork and birds

4x6 oil on canvas panel

I got this feeling for the the river down the road. I made it foggy, or tried to anyway.  There were all these Cormorants in the trees. Thousands of them, crapping on every thing too. They also made this monkey hoot sound
Cormorants in the trees and farther in the background for about a mile on the far side of the river.  They are hugh but there isn't a scale to tell by in the photo.

I think it's awesome. Very tonalist. The values and temperature changes are subtle and sensitive. Nice work! :)

I like the feeling of the haze and fog. Nice job, be sure to dodge when in that area!
