Three Birches 16x20 Oil painted 1/22/2016
It was beautiful here yesterday, unlike what’s happening weather wise in the east coast. And the painting shown above, our three birch trees, is done in a semi-abstract fashion. Somehow in the back of my mind was Gauguin’s advice to Paul Serusier, his student, which is, and I am paraphrasing, ‘if you see blue make it bluer, if you see red make it redder etc.’ And following Gauguin’s prompts Serusier painted the famous Talisman painting.
