Description
This painting captures the essence of an archetypal image deeply rooted in our collective imagination. The solitary tree resonates with the human unconscious as a timeless motif in myth, legend, and folklore standing as a symbol of strength, wisdom, and independence. With impressionist techniques and a refined use of materials, I sought to evoke a sense of tranquillity, where soft light radiates gently from the distance and a beautiful tree stands as the full focal point inviting contemplation and stillness.
As a representation of hope, beauty, and the natural world, the flourishing tree bridges earth and sky. Subtle blue hues, touches of gold, and delicate impressions of light suggest a tree in full leaf. Together, these elements create a tapestry of serenity and renewal, imbuing any space with a peaceful, dreamlike atmosphere.
This original, one-of-a-kind artwork has been painted with acrylics on a circular canvas. My process begins with direct observation, making sketches and taking photographs on location to use as references in the studio. From these studies, I work intuitively laying down initial layers with a brush, then building texture and depth through impasto techniques applied with a palette knife. I draw upon the optical mixing methods of the Impressionists, as well as traditional techniques such as scumbling and glazing used by the old masters.
I continue refining the painting until it reaches a natural conclusion. The finished work is a contemporary piece that exists between abstraction and realism. The image continues around the edges of the canvas and is signed along the side. It requires no frame and is ready to hang. For presentation purposes, the painting has been photographed against a white background.
