5 1/2" X 5 1/2" Study Florida Landscapes 2





This is a painting of the Florida Pines on the other side of the path where the Palms were.  It is a necessity to find shade to set up and do a painting.  It is the same shady spot were I painted the "Oasis from the Sun" only on the opposite side of the path.  The Florida Pine Trees are so different from the pines in the north.  They branch out similar to an oak tree rather than have all the branches extend from the trunk evenly each year like the northern pine.  Also the pine needles are open and airy rather than thick clusters like a Christmas tree.
