Summer Blossoms (2008) - Tree Blossom Series

Size: 80cm W x 60cm H

Flowering trees are a vibrant example of the patterns replicated in nature within the chaotic-seeming branches. The closer one looks, the more the patterns appear in every detail – the branches, the flowers, the bark. The sky is a hazy blue depecition of a hot summer day.The structural representation of my tree also embodies the principals of bonsai – an idealized recreation of nature.

This acrylic painting is constructed of coloured dots approximately 1mm in diameter.
