Autumn Trees
30 x 30
oil and paper on boxed wood panel
This painting had an interesting creative process from start to finish. I
first primed and gesso'd the board, then using matte mediums, added
scraps of paper in leopard and floral motifs to sort of form the
outlines of trees and bushes. I then picked up my pallet knives and
started painting mixing large quantities of paint, and generously
swiping them on the board resulting in a thick, textural and loose
painting. In the end, almost all the paper and board are covered, but it
was fun to see what would happen in this creative process.
This painting is for sale for $850.00. Contact me to figure out the
shipping costs, or if you are passing by my studio, you can pick it up
