Original artwork description:

Painted on-site at Lyndale Park in Minneapolis, MN. Features a crabapple tree with white blossoms and a pink blush, leaning at a jaunty angle. Other crabapples with rosy pink blooms can be seen in the background to the left, while to the right is a row of stunning bright purple lilac bushes, and hedges with fresh, bright, yellow-green foliage.
The colors in the trees and bushes are complimented by the colorful sky of blue and purple with white clouds. Paint has been applied with both palette knife and brush, and and the look of the clouds and blossoms has been enhanced by the texture of the paint. A bright and lively tribute to spring!
Framed in a 0.75" wide "float" style frame with a platinum face and black edges. May be purchased unframed by request.

Materials used:
