Oak Leaves, ala Hockney

The milk carton paper is 25 1/2″ wide, except where there is water damage.   So the edges aren’t even.  This photo is an approximation of the way David Hockney did some of this photos.  Gregg did the Photoshop magic to put them back together again.  It is fall and the oak leaves are some of the last to fall, and prettiest colors.

Working flat is not my normal way.  So the surface is paper, smooth and not textured like canvas.  And there are no drips.   Gregg got up on a ladder to take this photo, because I’m not done yet.   When I am done, we have to find a 10 ft. wall to hang it on for a final photo.
