This painting shows a tree with a thick trunk and branches that spread out in all directions. The tree is painted in shades of green and brown, with some yellow and white highlights. The background is a soft yellow color. The tree appears to be growing out of a pile of rocks or boulders, which are painted in shades of gray and brown. The overall effect is one of natural beauty and tranquility. To learn more about the artist's use of watercolor and glazing techniques, look up Pavel Tchelitchew.
