Step 9 - Foreground established

As this detail of the trunks shows, I have added darks made by mixing warm brown of orange and carbazole violet as well as Copper Kettle and ultramarine blue. Foreground area is now in for its initial color mingling of wet paint. I will let this dry and add other layers to correct values.
I've splattered color at random amongst the trunks, leaves, and twigs.
