Tall Trees

“Your New Home Here”

Celebration wins in this large plein-air watercolor.

A tree portrait executed in the drive, under the very drive!

My work puts nice, hard lines into conflict with messy curvy ones, getting busy and dirty quickly.

Here, I was able to maintain freshness and vitality of marks across the Treescape, suggesting HUGENESS and Life. Here also, the Conflict was a simplified notion, visually so easy.

Goodbye, Tall Trees.

The cry of the Tall Tree out back, 1999
Neighborhood surveys damage. 1994
The empty lot gets 8 luxury homes
