The Sugar Maple in one impressive tree. Just the gamut of color it produces is reason enough to love it - green, yellow, red, orange! On top of that it produces maple syrup! The straight trunk with it's expressive branches reaching out to dance is another reason to love this beauty. How could I not paint this lovely creature?
The deep thick bark contrasts the birch tree series I have been working on - requiring a new painting style. I used a combination of palette knife, side by side color mixing and laying to give this piece movement and the feeling of endless color.
Expressive Sugar Maple is a 30"x40" acrylic painting on stretched canvas with 1.5" thick stretcher bars and painted edges. This original painting is available at Peculiar Painter in Walker, MN for $785.00 | 218-547-3729 |
