sun-kissed willow buds

$90 - 6x6" original oil painting on 1/8" panel
In order to capture the little "whispies" of the willow buds, I used a toothpick. 
Sometimes, a brush just doesn't do the job.
Also, I don't normally paint like this but, when painting glass, it can be easier to just fill in the whole background.
Then I started to build up the glass. Normally, I do a drawing with burnt umber and a thin brush and work my way out. It was quite a challenge to take this approach but... always learning! Cheers.
