Marshall and Oona are home sick. I make a bed on the sidewalk for Marshall and he cuddles in the blankets and draws the flowers beside him. So good. He also goes on the tree swing so I paint him. I want to record how the old apple tree blooms on different sides on different years.
This apple tree portrait is a wide shot to include the top and bottom of the tree. The bottom has a swing, slide and trampoline. We use this tree as a play structure support. It is an intimate and unusual space so I painted to document. The top of the tree is blossoms and leaves and done with a loose smashing of brush strokes to create a wild far reaching feel.
