New pointillist work

Here is a larger work than my recent plein air small pieces, done in the studio. I had an old 16x20 canvas stretched that had some lines of paint which still showed through when I gessoed over them so knew I had to paint thick to hide these lines. My first try at my normal style was OK but the lines still bothered me in spots, plus the painting lacked life. I decided to paint over it with a pointillist style borrowed from the 1880's French artists like Pisarro and Seurat, using small dots of paint all over. I may need to darken the dark areas a little but I like how it's coming so far.
