Original artwork description:

Painted on-site at Minnehaha Park in Minneapolis. Features a large maple tree with brilliant pink, peach, and lemon yellow leaves. The tree rests along a path in the park, in a green, yellow and gold autumn landscape with fallen leaves strewn along the ground. Painted in oil over casein paint on canvas. Canvas is stretched on 1.5 inch thick stretcher bars with painted sides, for a "gallery-wrap" look that "pops" off the wall and requires no frame.

Materials used:

oil paint, casein paint, canvas
