The original painting is for sale. I may have an obsession with painting tree branches, I like the patterns and the colors the mix of warm and cool colors. For the bark I  used a combination of browns and purples, and I used gouache to highlight the lighter areas of the branches.

Thanks Nancy, I like using cerulean blue for skies-it's nice and bright!
