Crystal Forest Painting Barry Tate Gallery of Fine Art - acrylic paintings and watercolor paintings

CRYSTAL FOREST

The trees for this painting were actually inspired by some Fir and Spruce trees that grow within a few feet of our bedroom window. I thought it interesting how the branches only radiate from the trunk at specific points. Everyone that I could see did. I would assume the radials coinside with seasonal growth, marking each consecutive year.
Intrigued by their precise pattern yet random growth of the actual branch, I created Crystal Forest as a sillouette against a frosty abstract backdrop.

ORIGINAL PAINTING:

30" x 40" acrylic on 3/4" clean-edge canvas. ( 28x38 face dimension )
A clean-edge painting can simply be hung "as is" for a modern contemporary look, or by using an optional frame that suits your decor.

GICLÉE PRINT
Giclée prints are the best type of reproductions available today.
They are supplied with a double acid free mat and foam backing board. All you need is a common 16x20" frame.
Mat options are:
    silver gray with dark blue inner mat - nice traditional look that fits well. A mid to dark colored frame looks best
    dark blue on dark blue - dramatic and bold look, very powerful. Best with a light colored frame like silver etc.
    white on white - traditional gallery choice, classy and elegant. Goes with all decors. Best with a mid to medium dark frame.
