in this tree stump in my mother's back yard. Kind of cool, isn't it? Reminds me a lot of a painting I saw at the gallery this weekend. It was heavily textured like this, three wide bands in varying degrees of light and dark, with a digital black and white photograph of a leafless tree silhouetted against the sky in the center of one of the bands. The photograph was actually on a separate piece of board or canvas that was affixed on top of the substrate in some mysterious manner. Once again, I can't remember who the artist is. . . I must do a better job of attribution.

Great texture. You have a good eye Mary!
I love the texture in the stump... and this is really eerie, but your description of the painting you saw sounds like some of my paintings with light and dark bands of textures with images of empty trees-- amazing!
Thanks, Leslie. I want to figure out what to add to my mediums to come up with this kind of texture. . . maybe just wood chips or sawdust?
Donna: The painting I saw, while kind of similar to some of your paintings, was not as detailed as yours are. I prefer yours, actually. Thanks for the comment. I'm so glad you have a blog now.
So happy to hear you had a fun day playing in your studio, Mary! May the Muses continue to call.
