6”x8” oil on canvas panel
This luminous plein air study depicts a sunlit tree at Paper Moon Farm, a place of deep personal significance where the artist once lived and farmed. The composition centers on a radiant tree catching the light, its golden-green foliage glowing against a soft blue sky, while darker wooded areas recede into shadow. Painted with vigorous, direct brushwork, the piece captures both the specific character of this beloved landscape and the quality of a particular moment's light across the fields.
This is an original plein air oil painting, meaning it was painted outdoors, on location, at old Maple View Farm in Orange County, NC. Painted on a canvas-mounted panel, this piece is ready to be framed or can be displayed on a picture ledge without a frame.
