There was a railroad bridge in this scene before lunch. The problem was that it was hard to engineer it to be level and look right. Eventually I gave up and edited it out, changing the scene from a Thames-like river scene to this more industrial or harbor scene. My intention was to apply this vague style to something other than trees -- cities in fact. The problem with cities is that one generally views buildings from the street and it is hard to stand back from an building without making the painting rather unrealistic -- perhaps factories would easier to isolate and paint. Tomorrow's project.
