Nine Trees (canvas wrap) birch I traced out the design

I traced out the design in pencil over the map then painted all the colors at the same time using a wet on wet technique that allowed the colors to mix and blend

I kept the same peaceful colors of the horizontal piece but wanted the trees to have a little more of a whimsical quality

The original New Mexico gray Mountains was painted on a road map of New Mexico

Nine Trees (canvas wrap) birch I traced out the designThe original Nine Trees was inspired by seeing the super moon illuminating the trees against the night sky. Acrylic washes were used for the background of the sky and the moon. The ground was textured heavily on the original with trowelled plaster before many layers of acrylic paints were applied. The raised silver colored metal embellishment on the trees lends a sculptural quality to this piece. *Michele Nine Trees is a one of a kind hand embellished
