Connection Sphere

Spheres are here, in the clear, is that weird? In this painting there is an unusual perspective used, like one you would see if you were sitting in the middle of a balloon. Every surface seemingly curving up down and away from your vision. To achieve this effect I looked up a diagram of how a sphere looks when translated onto a two dimensional plane and then used the format from memory to create the skeleton of this small study. Prior to doing that I populated the painting with the blob shapes, and finished with some grass and trees and the sky. Or did I start with the grass and take it from there ?
