The almond blossom trees are a constant source of inspiration. They are the first tree that blossoms in January and February every year. Flowering blossom trees represent awakening and hope. Almond trees add a special charm to the landscapes of Andalucia. Their willowy, wispy branches and delicate flowers grace hillsides and craggy cliffside areas with an elegant beauty. The colours and scents of their blossoms bring the springtime countryside to life. It’s an amazing experience to drive through large expanses of land cultivated with almond trees, but even more delicious is to walk through the groves.
Kirsty Wain has been inspired by Van Gogh's painting of almond blossoms to paint this large close-up of the beautiful spring flowers in bloom. The brushstrokes are thick and heavily textured with vibrant and expressive marks.

"Almond Blossom" is an original oil painting on a 3cm deep stretched canvas. The piece is 85cm tall and 90 cm wide, and the sides of the painting are painted "wrap-around style," so the piece can hang without a frame.

Materials used:

oil paint, linseed oil
