"Palm on the Water, II"
Pastel on UArt, 9x12
Sold
This picture of a single palm tree standing straight and proud on the edge of the marsh is a representation of a palm that I have used several times in other paintings. It is near a group of palms but stands separate from them closer to the water as if it is the rear guard protecting the grove from the incoming tide.
The haze of the late afternoon mutes the greens of the distant pines and oaks with shades of gray and lavender while the sky and water are painted with gold and purple.
