Original artwork description:

Painted on-site in the artist's neighborhood in Minneapolis, MN. Features a maple tree in full fall color, with foliage in shades of pink, peach, and salmon. The tree's tall and slender shape is highlighted by the tall rectangular shape of the canvas. The tree rests in a landscape of hilly grass dusted with fallen leaves, with foliage of evergreens and yellow maples in the background. The scene is crowned with a pale blue sky and a scattering of bare branches. Painted in oil over casein paint with both palette knife and brush. The texture of the foliage is brought to life with intricate clusters of thick dabs of paint, applied with palette knife, in a myriad of shades of pink, peach, and red. Florescent oil paint has been incorporated into the foliage of the tree, and the leaves on the ground include iridescent oil paint. The painting is ready to hang with painted sides and a wire on the back. The 1" thick stretcher bars will also easily fit into a frame if framing is desired.

Materials used:
