Working from a photo I took in New Zealand in 2015, I focused on using a combination of blended and unblended strokes and emphasized intense color in the midground because that's what makes the original photo eye-catching. Also, since I love Van Gogh's work, I incorporated some cypresses in his style.
The painting is on black sanded pastel foam board.
