Description

The foliage of the tree was painted first with some random brush marks (this time was a "swish" of the brush). Once dry, I looked to see what I could "see".
Acrylics and ancillary media on paper.
6x4 inches.
Damaged by water

Your work is absolutely ASTONISHING. It all seems so simple but there's so much going on that I wouldn't be able to do myself. It's like a fairy tale dream. I partly don't know what to say other than I'm falling for your work, hard.

Really, if you take a step back and realize what the picture is, it's quite simple--but you add such cool textures and on top of that, you use such awesome clours that it becomes something completely different than just a tree--it's really something that grabs your attention.

Amazing, as usual!

That is part of the idea: Make something to draw the viewer in to explore what is going on in the work.
Thank you very much! You have made my morning!

Thank you!
The main color of the tree is Golden paints' Turquois (Phthalo). I like this color a lot.

beautiful work looks as if the tree was made of sky, like the detail of the one on the distance, is the one waiting?

very inspiring!

is it really painted on paper? the effects on the backgroud makes it looks like it was painted on a wall!

SethFitts In reply to illia-khouri [2009-08-31 17:16:53 +0000 UTC]

Yes, it is on paper. The way the paint is applied and the use of medium give the effects.
Thank you.

I really enjoy the inspired, singularly swirling brushstroke, upwards. It's almost calligraphic

SethFitts In reply to snowunmasked [2009-08-31 17:15:56 +0000 UTC]

It was intended to be somewhat calligraphic in the beginning but changed as I worked on it.
Thank you

Swirl of blue
a different hue
for a little tree
for all to see

( Not quite a poem, just a quick observation. )
