Memory Tree

Description

20×16 acrylic on gallery-wrapped canvas.

The organic forms in “Memory Tree” resemble trees, gingko leaves, sea fans, or even fungus. The colors and gold highlights look amazing in good lighting! It was created using variations of a poured acrylic swipe technique. I plan to do more in this style, perhaps even larger. That gets tricky, as the larger the canvas, the longer it takes to do the painting and the more time there is for the background paint to dry. But this type of piece must all be done at one sitting while the paint is still wet. It will be a good challenge.

“Memory Tree” doesn’t need a frame, as the deep gallery-wrapped canvas is painted on all sides.
