Budding Birch Forest

"Budding Birch Forest" 20"w x 16"h Siiviis Gallery, Duluth MN

Today's painting is a 20"w x 16"h canvas titled Budding Birch Forest. This piece is along a series I've enjoyed working with recently that features a lake and places the shoreline across the lake right across the middle of the composition. I find the distant shoreline, along with the foreground rocks, birches and shrubs to be a very interesting visual play of elements. The lake and sky are also fascinating to me, each having a different saturation of blue. The snow is melting fast around here today, it won't be long before the ice is off the lakes and the birches are budding.
