Fine Art Landscape: The Purple Tree Oil Painting - Artwork


I love nature and often become inspired by it. When painting landscapes, I like a little realism with some fantasy mixed in as well. Trees are fascinating for me and I love painting them with clean lines and a little bit of art deco shadow. I finished this painting about 3 weeks ago and am very happy with it. Purple and yellows evoke an almost sensual experience for the eye.
This guy is a bit of a narcissist as his reflection smiles back at him. This original oil painting is for sale in my Ebay store at http://stores.ebay.com/The-Escape-Artist-Gallery_W0QQssPageNameZl2QQtZkm, plus note cards are available for sale on my website at http://www.laurabarat.com/.
