Description
Birches won 3rd place in the Oil Painters of America Online Showcase February contest. The birches are seen mid-canopy, simple and tall. The drama of the painting is accentuated by the colors of the background. This painting is painted with palette knives so the work is thick and textural.
I am a passionate painter and a joyful observer of nature; these qualities comprise the foundation for my work. As a palette knife painter, I use texture to add depth and intrigue, sculpting the paint in layers to capture the viewer’s attention. The richness of color is exciting and clarified by crisp lines. It has taken me years of study to learn to control the paint. Success is achieved when the texture and color lift off the canvas in a three dimensional perspective
