January TIF - I Look Up at Trees

Whew - in under the wire, ready for the launch for the next challenge tomorrow.
I realized that while I admire a lot of people for various things, frequently at different times, I always look up at trees. I like the way their branches look against the sky in the winter, I like the shade and comfort and friendliness they exude in the summer, I love the colors in the spring and fall. In another life, I was probably a druid, or someone else who worshipped trees.
I had fun working on this. I was dubious about the colors, and really stuck on the concept of admiration, but working out of my comfort zone in one area (the color palette) while still pushing my experiments forward using transfer paints was very gratifying.
Sometimes, I like assignments. Even self-imposed assignments. It helps decide what to do next.
