Bent Tree on a Mountain Trail
by Godfrey J. Ellis – 16×20 oil 1974
This painting was a Christmas gift for Mom and Dad Huntamer. We were a young couple (25 and 23) and still in grad school. We had little money. We thought paintings would be good and relatively inexpensive gifts to give. So I picked up few paint brushes and a few paints and went to work after not having painted for a couple of years. We were happy with how the mountain and the tree came out but I was disappointed with the bushes in the foreground.
