Earth Tree Sky

Earth Tree Sky       12x16 each              16x 36 all three

I wanted to move to a more recognizable abstract. Trees and nature are a heart-felt topic for me flowing out of a lifelong habit of woods-walking.

The work began with deep green, chosen because I do not frequently use it. Then again, colors selected with the idea of quad-complements, as explained in previous entry.

I chose medium to large size shapes - repeated with variations, attempting to have some flow from one to the next. Then I used any combination of colors to paint both positive and negative tree shapes. The Great Blue Herons completed the effort.



This abstract acrylic triptych is a new venture for me. The colors are more subdued than usual for me. I was not sure I like the results. However, it has grown on me and now am satisfied….seems peaceful.
