Sequoias in the Sun

In this painting, Sequoias in the Sun, I chose a palette of turquoise, green, gold, earthy red and deep purple.

The air of the forest is soft and misty in the bright light from above.

My favorite part of this painting is the rays of the sun bursting from behind the top of the giant tree. You can see every color of the rainbow in this small area!

I also love the movement in the tree branches that makes it look like the trees are dancing, or blowing in a breeze.
