The Turnip Harvesters, landscape painting by Kirk Witmer

You may recall my Study for a Future Landscape, posted back in April.
Well this is it.

Imagine Dorchester, England during The Long Depression of the late 1800's. This is my first in a series of paintings, all of which are inspired by a movie set in that time and place. I've made some changes from what I saw in the movie to improve the composition, give it a stronger focal point and enhance the mood.
18x24" - Oil on canvas

And here's the screen capture upon which The Turnip Harvesters is based.
I'll be posting more info on the series soon. Stay tuned.

Hopefully what I've done here is a little more interesting visually than what you would see when watching the movie.
What do you think?
