To paint aspen for me is a joy! I spend so much time in and around the aspen tree, I feel like they are family! This painting was from a need to feel the spring time at the tips of my fingers! I love the soft colors that bring spring, and that is what this painting is about. You will see bits of paper peeking through, and a mark or so here and there from charcoal to define a bit of the abstract feel of the leaves. I usually paint the subject matter in oil, so the top of it all will be oil. This 18"x18" cradled painting comes ready to hang.
The sides are stained with a grey stain to compliment and unify what you see in the trees themselves. This gives the painting a completed, contemporary look.
here in this detail shot you can see the paper peeking through and some of the fun stamping that makes for interest.
more fun implied texture and pattern in this detail
KEEP LOOKING FOR THAT INSPIRATION!
