Submit an Entry: Painting Photos Challenge #3 Landscape with Big Tree

Join the challenge to create a painting using this photo of a tree in a landscape as the subject for a painting in whatever style you choose. This aim is for you to paint the subject and scene depicted in the photo in your own style. (Don't feel compelled to replicate the photo exactly as it is; you're not a human photocopier, you're a painter. Apply artistic license to select how much you of the photo you use for your painting. As to how abstract your painting might be, be guided by the style of the photo.)
