Dedicated mahi went into this deeply layered artwork. It's almost 3D and perspective altering. I love the sense of being the forest floor looking upward at the beautiful blue sky. The birch trees have a lovely sense of dancing movement, because the work feels 3D you expect to almost intuitively feel you're laying on the ngahere / forest floor watching the sun create light patterns through the leaves of the trees. The Sun has a Celtic vibe to it and depending on angle, and light at time of the day and the sun glints in different directions and through the forest.
In Celtic mythology, the birch tree is symbolic of beginnings, renewal and purification.
The Birch tree is sacred to Celts and revered for it's protective influence.
The artwork has a reflective high gloss finish. So, it's really difficult to pick up all the deep detailing and effects with the camera, and very tricky to photograph.
This Brich tree painting interacts with light. At different times of the day, the metallic silver on the birch trees glints.
The artwork is an unusual and eye catching contemporary colourway of lime, yellow many shades of green, blue skiess and black and white birch trees with the occassional glint of and metallic silver.
The colours in the painting describe Mother Earth / Papatūānuku / Danu and her magical seasons.
Birch or Beithe, is the first tree of the Ogham, the Celtic alphabet and first tree in the Celtic Astrology Lunar Chart.
As the birch is a pioneer species it is symbolic of rebirth, new beginnings and growth.
My painting style doesn't really fit into any category, I think I'm probably in my own lane.
Unfortunately I can't sell my art for what they cost me to make. But painting is my mindfulness and I love creating these artworks. My work is unique and since I can't exhibit - it can take some time for my paintings to find their people.
So I appreciate you, thank you stopping by and for your support! As long as I have enough to buy materials, I will continue to create paintings that I'm told make people feel happy.
