Melaleuca Rain #2

Studying the melaleucas out of my studio window has been so calming. They are especially beautiful on a foggy morning, when their leaves are heavy with dew and weighed down almost like curtain tassels hanging off branches.

Painted on stretched canvas in impasto-rich acrylic paints. Sealed. The sides are painted, so it is ready to hang, or would look lovely in an oak frame.

Art has been written into my soul from a young age.

I paint to understand places and feelings better. At this stage, I follow no definable style, I merely paint from my experiences in the moment. Maybe expressionism is my word.
