Sugar Cane Field (by the side of the road)
I painted this one after I got home from my trip.
It was one of those "out the side of the moving car" photos.
I'm showing you the photo too ....
not because I did a great job copying the photo ....
but to show you it doesn't HAVE to look "just like it."
I was looking at the movement and entanglement of super long grass blades
and layers of colors.
I tried capturing that more than anything else.
Thank you for all the wonderful comments on this series.
I appreciate the feedback :)

you make things so very intricate and interesting, you have such a wonderful quality of texture you add to everything.. i really like this one
No, it certainly doesn't have to look like the photo -- except the way you've done it is to paint what is essential. Essential, probably, to your eye. That is fascinating to me.
This is a great interpretation. I love it. I loved seeing the picture, your inspiration, then seeing how you made it your own. Thanks@!
I like this SO much!
