Up the hill


Oil on canvas size 30x30"
Trees...again. Love them, especially in Tuscany. Pathways and trees, I could paint them over and over again. Light and colors change according to the time of the day, the season, the color of the sky. I can never paint a landscape without trees. Pointy trees, squat trees, bare trees, trees in flower. Twisted trunks, gnarled roots, tender saplings. I am a painter of trees.
This painting can be seen at Buckland Southers Galleries, in West vancouver.

The trees are beautiful.
Colors are vibrant.
Composition amazing.

I can almost smell the clean air and feel the breeze.

I am inspired.
