Original Acrylic painting

Colors are dusty baby blue, mustard ochre yellow, dark chocolate brown, and a pure white.

This is a more graphic representation of how I normally do the Three Trees series. I wanted to do something with sharper lines and bolder colors to see how I liked it. The flat color called for some more dramatic texture, so I piled on the pigment and played around whith the highlights once it dried. A really fun effect, make sure to look at the different angles to get a sense of the texture.

The edges are painted, no need for framing.

I started this series of Three Trees paintings as a playground for color and composition. The focus of these paintings are the deep tones of color, using layers of paint to achieve the right hue. If you look close you can see the different layers of paint used to create each tree's exact color. In terms of composition, I toy with the relationship between the trees, some overlapping, some isolated...I attempt to give the trees a type of personality with their position and relationship with the other trees.

I find it fascinating that these simple concepts combined with simple objects can create a rich environment.

The Three Trees series is a spin off of my "Home" series, in which I explore these same color techniques and cross it with the personalization of someones home.
