Russian Olive Trees

These are my dad’s favorite trees so I wanted to paint them. My love of nature comes from the many years we’ve spent exploring the outdoors together. My dad is 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!

All prints are professionally printed using archival inks on a special tightly-woven canvas that we then mount onto wood panels. No further framing is required, but can be if desired.
