Website: http://beckyjoy.com

Describe this Piece: Oil on canvas with sunlight coming through the branches as a focal point. The colors become cooler and less pure as they move away from the focal point of the light. The field in front of the oak tree is a warm gray. All the grays in the painting help to create the glow of the light.
