The Sun

"The Sun" 

The Sun is one of my favorite paintings, if not my favorite. I like how the colors go so well together. But my absolute favorite part is the sun. I liked how I made the outside darker than the middle which draws your eye straight to the middle of the sun. It's the first thing you are drawn to when you see it. Then the tree is the last thing you notice. Even though the tree is the closest to you, you notice the sun fist.
I had a lot of fun painting this. I liked being free with the brush. I didn't have to do anything precise or have to be careful, like I would have to while painting a face. I've been painting a lot of faces recently and it's hard to get it to look the way you want. So, this was really nice, because I didn't have exactly what it should look like planned out in my head. I am thinking of painting more of this style in the future.

P.s. I used acrylic paints.
