Green Artist

There was an open air art show in the local Square a couple of weeks ago when the weather was very sunny and I decided to give it a go, it is my first try at a panoramic painting but I really like the the shape of the wider paper.

I took lots of reference photos and I took along a little sketchbook to get some tonal values and to help me select the most interesting aspects of the scene. 

Its a bit difficult to show the whole image properly because of the shape but here is a detail from it, the whole painting is 11 x 30 inches (28 x 76 cm) unmounted.
