6”x8” oil on panel
This plein air study depicts a luminous tree at Old Maple View Farm in Hillsborough, North Carolina, its full canopy glowing with yellow-green foliage against a dynamic sky. The composition captures the tree's commanding presence surrounded by dark water that mirrors its form, while distant hills fade into shadow on the horizon. Painted with vigorous, spontaneous brushwork, the piece conveys both the specific character of this beloved local farm and the transient effects of light and atmosphere.
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 panel of “gesso board”, this piece is ready to be framed or can be displayed on a picture ledge without a frame.
