Living Sky
Light illuminates a trio of larches through the moody sky.
Wonderful Juxtaposition!
I was excited to try and capture this image, how can mother nature have a dark sky while at the same time a glowing beam of light on a tree? At times wandering in nature i am dumbfounded at how much light is swirling around. On days like this one. Its all light and sky. I want the sky to move for the viewer in this piece and I hope it swirls as it does for me. A fine line on when to stop with painting this sky. A challenge to get the trees color correct against this grey background, I'm incredibly pleased with the way this came together.
Fall in the Kootenays.
A truly captivating piece painted this fall here in my home studio at 6 mile in Nelson BC. One of my best misty realism works yet, this painting really exploded out of my hands, the colors mixed easily and went on the canvas with ease.
The larches have been painted mostly with a pallet knife and have a luster paint that shines in the light. The whole tree is not made up of this paint, just where the light would hit it in nature.
Beautiful printed Canvas available in a few different sizes
This was painted from a photograph my friend and neighbor Naasko took a few years back. Thank you for letting me be inspired on this.
