Gibbs trees 3, From the Gibbs Gardens portfolio, 2021, Acrylic on panel, 6 x 6 inches

Some trees from a Spring visit to Gibbs Gardens. Sometimes while making a painting it seems like it’s not completely working out. Then we leave it alone a couple of weeks. When we go back to it we see it with fresh eyes with all the self talk voices silenced and suddenly it works. This painting is an example of that for me.
