A mural painted at a local dog rescue with my friend, Pam. This is in the reception area for the rescue building.
This entire tree was done in black acrylic paint. The start was to center the trunk in the corner of the room. Then bring the branches out and up. (happy trees = branches up, spooky trees = branches hang down a bit)
We did one side, then moved to the other the following day. Adding a few more branches and then the leaves. Most are kind of heart shaped. Start with a V at the end of the branch then round out the top and twist the brush to meet at a point at the end of the leaf.
