New Work: Alchemy

posted in: Art

Oil painting Palette knife landscape of a Japanese maple, path and water

 

This painting is all about Alchemy. The scene is from a day at the Shinzen Japanese Friendship Gardens in Fresno, CA. I arrived tired and worn out, and the land healed my soul. This piece was also a study in facing my fears. I love that I turned something that was unpleasant into something beautiful.
The original is 18″x24″, oil on a cradled wood panel, the sides are painted black. The investment is $1500, and shipping is free if you live in the USA. We are having a heatwave so it will only take a week to dry 🙂 If interested, please click here to send me a note.
