Fallen Log

19in h x 32in w

£400 framed

Item number 801

A fallen log with fungi and new growth emerging from it

Fine impressionist oil paint with a hint of abstraction. The painting has been painted in a variety of subdued colours but where the artist wishes to emphasise the subject, he has introduced yellow and burnt umber to highlight focal point of the work. A very strong and dynamic work that is truly effective in its composition.

The picture is portraying the concept of rebirth with the old dead wood that has become corrupted and the new shoots emerging from beneath it.
