Landscape Painting Original Acrylic Trees in Summer

Landscape Painting Original Acrylic Trees in Summer
"Tree Lined"
18x18 on cradled wood
-
This painting is an adapted view from my back yard, 
This painting is painted on cradled wood.   These are a real pain in the butt to make, but I really like the feel of painting on wood, plus they look really nice.  I cut and sand the wood(Masonite),cut and build a frame from 1 1/2 in wood strips.  Then I glue the wood to the frame.   Gesso and sand it 3 times, hey I'm ready to paint. It looks like gallery wrap except it's all wood.
