This watercolor shows two tall trees with thick trunks and lush green leaves. The bark is rough and white, with some dark patches. Light filters through the branches, making dappled shadows on the ground below. The sky peeks through at the top, soft and pale. The artist focused on the texture of the bark and the play of light in the leaves. The brushstrokes are loose, giving the trees a natural, almost sketchy feel. Want to see more like this?
