These are nice.

Yes!  I like this.  Odd size, interesting treatment.  Well done!  I paint pine trees too.  My husband calls them the "palm trees" of this area.  They are indigenous here, like palms in Florida.  I love their form, their smell and the sound the wind makes when it sighs through them.  Nice work.  Come and paint a few with me this fall.  You would love this area.  Check out the PAAR 2012 event in September at my lake place on Lake Roosevelt.  Only $99 and you get to paint with other great artists.  Hope to paint a pine or two with ya!

so happy to find someone else that loves them too!  I love the shape of the branches that stick out or are broken.  I will look up your event and see.  Thanks for your nice comments Cecile and Lynne

My Dad used to call those evergreens  with all the broken off lower limbs, lion's tails.
