The Lone Tree

Just a small oil painting for this week.  I painted the canvas with a thinned cadmium red and allowed some of it to show through.  It's a warmer and more subtle red than I've used recently to prime other canvases.  I think I like it better than the bright red for a scene such as this one.  Also, by using it thinned rather than as an opaque red, the white of the canvas is able to glow through it.
