Bales o' Hay


Bales o' Hay
5x7"
Oil
$70


This is my submission for this week's DPW Challenge. I really liked doing it. Thalo green is a very powerful color and can run away with you, but because this is supposed to be monochromatic, I was on fairly safe ground. 

I have had the photograph of those Oklahoma bales for a couple of years and have tried to paint them before, but with no success. Once again, the "Challenge" forced me to do just the thing I wanted to do.
