Original artwork description:

Kirsty Wain's utilization of vibrant ink and delicate pastels has produced a striking piece of art showcasing a blue-toned field of olive trees. The artwork captures the artist's intrigue with the unique shapes and textures of these historic trees, vividly depicted through dynamic brushstrokes and confident use of lines.

It is believed that the Phoenicians first introduced the olive tree to Iberia (in the region of what is now Spain) in 1050 BC. The intrinsic characteristics of the FARGA variety, the climate and the terrain are conducive to the long life of these olive trees, which have been able to adapt perfectly to the environment.
