"Old Sycamore" (oil painting)

Painted on location in Tujunga Canyon north of Los Angeles.  The trunk of this tree was hollowed out and dark, but the tree was still alive.

I googled pictures for Tujunga Canyon cuz of your paintings. I found river with those rocks and it's really very beautiful.

Another nice one... but then I'm a big fan of how you paint light! The paleness of that fallen tree is really nice... sycamore?

Thanks @reddragonfly  Yes, it's a sycamore, but it's actually just leaning.  Immediately behind it is a canyon wall. Maybe I didn't do a convincing job of 'splainin!  😂
