Aspen Tree Paintings

My expressive 11"x14" aspen oil painting on canvas is titled, "Aspen Waltz". If you've ever strolled in an aspen forest, you know that mystical feeling that pervades every aspect of sky, trees, and foliage.

Aspen Tree Paintings

"Its wonderful to climb the liquid mountains of the sky. Behind me and before me is God and I have no fears." - Helen Keller

This painting is all about the sky, then the aspens leading down to the path. Usually, it's the other way around in my paintings. The path takes the viewer where I want their eye to lead. I love this quote from Helen Keller. Think about it, she couldn't see the sky. However, she could smell the fresh air while feeling the wind on her skin (not listening to it).

My 30"x30" acrylic aspen tree palette knife painting on wide border canvas is titled, "Finding Grace". This painting is available for purchase. You can see more of my work and contact me through my website. CLICK HERE

Aspen Tree Paintings

Herman Melville, an early American author, is quoted as saying, "We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men; and among those fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects."

My 11"x14" acrylic aspen tree painting on canvas is titled, "Tangled". It was inspired by my trip last year to Kebler Pass, just outside of Crested Butte, Colorado. There was an area up in the pass that contained a stand of brilliantly beautiful young aspen trees. They were so deeply connected that it appeared they were tangled up in one another.
