Having done a vertical version, I now went back to horizontal canvas, but moved my point of view further away. I like the echo of shapes between the sun and the land, but the trees I just couldn’t get working for me. I repainted them many times, eventually putting the canvas to one side. Though, I’m still not entirely happy with them, I decided to declare the painting 'finished' as I wasn’t convinced I ever would get them 'right' in my eyes.
