Gouache on warm tan paper, painted en plein air

The Gold Trees Trio was born of my love of rhythm, repetition, and subtle variation. I didn’t want just one tree—I wanted three voices in harmony, each tree with its own silhouette, its own dance with light and air, yet together telling a story. That golden wash, again, because light is everything. The way light grazes tree bark, catches at leaves, throws shadows—those are the details that steal your breath.

Painted in gouache, with that glowing green and gold palette, this trio is both serene and vibrant. It’s for someone who loves nature whispering indoors, who wants a grouping of pieces that feel calm but alive. When these three stand together in a room, they become a chorus of light.
