Birch Tree Acrylic on Gessobord 8”x10” Chris Breier © 2015 |
I enjoy taking walks around Audubon lake, it's located near a local library so I stop there when I have books to drop off. Some sections of the park are heavily wooded but I like how this birch tree adds interest to the lake by breaking up the space and the white bark is a nice contrast to the darker areas. I used light blue to paint in the shapes of the sky holes, which are the pieces of sky between the branches. When I completed the painting I thought the way that I handled the branches looked a little reminiscent of a Mondrian tree painting.
