Olive Tree...

A water colour painting on hot pressed paper of an Olive tree in Malaga Spain … inspired by this poem.. “
Under the olive tree
I sat, I watched, I listened
Through scorching heat of summer
And biting wintry winds
At harvest time the olives fell
Drumming out their plight
Abandoned, they were cast away
Forsaken, no one gathered them
A waste, while ambitious men nearby
Ran to catch the wind.” anonymous. Marcha real- first experimentalpainting of an Olive tree.. .....

    This is beautiful! I love the way you’ve done the shadows! Was it lots of “paint-a little-dry-a-little” moments? And why is it experimental? the link in description doesn’t work :-(
