About this work

This print shows a cluster of bare trees against a dark background. The branches are thin and tangled, painted in pale pink and white. The black space around them looks like night, making the trees stand out sharply. The artist used a mix of carved linoleum and watercolor to create this effect—like scratching lines into a dark surface and adding color afterward. It feels raw and quick, almost like a sketch. If you like this style, look up watercolor glazing to see how layers of thin paint build up color.
