Palo Verde in Sunlight – Jill Danahey

Palo Verde in Sunlight

Gallery Wrap 12 x 36″

Acrylic

This tall, narrow canvas lent itself to the wonderful Palo Verde trees that I loved from Arizona and Marfa Texas.  There is a bit of gauze fabric to give texture to the tree branches.  I then played with sunlight and shadow in somewhat fanciful colors.  Purple shadows for contrast with sunlight is a favorite for me.
