the Bahamas and Cuba

Five Trees (canvas wrap) silver I painted it using thinnedThe original Five Trees was inspired seeing the late fall aspen trees silhouetted against the supermoon in the night sky. Painted in acrylics, the background of the sky and ground were depicted in a blend of colors using a horizontal brushed technique. The raised silver colored metal embellishment on the trees lends a sculptural quality to this piece. *Michele Five Trees is a one of a kind hand embellished reproduction using our raised Molten Metals
