Russian Olive Trees
RUSSIAN OLIVE TREES, Acrylic on Panel, 12 x 12”, ©2019 Jim Musil 🎨
These are my dad’s favorite trees so I wanted to paint them. My love of nature comes from the many years my dad and I have spent exploring the outdoors together. He's also a scientist and gave me the gift of careful observation. We both love the silvery blue-green leaves of these trees -- even if they are a pesky invasive species. This fall, I noticed that while all the other leafy trees change color, russian olive trees hold onto their lovely hue. It makes for a gorgeous palette when paired with pale gold fields and a wispy blue sky. Enjoy!
