Silver birch forest

Oil on Board 10*12
I wanted to try something different and a little challenging so I Found some trees where the sunlight shone through. This is was painted on Priddis Valley Drive.
When I first painted I had too much light on the upper right tree so I had to tone it down a little  and put more light on the front tree to get it to settle and sit back properly. I also added more light and shadow to take it away from a middle value painting.
I love the sense of depth with this one.
