Acrylic on linen, 58x84cm, February 2020
The painting shows the silhouette of trees with black branches and twigs, which are surrounded by colourful, impasto marks created by a palette knife. The viewer looks up at the trees from a slight low angle. The trees on the outer left and right are the largest, with smaller ones towards the middle and a space in the center left, as if they were planted on the sides of a road.

The colours surrounding the trees were applied with a palette knife, whereas the black trees were painted. The background merges into the foreground and melts together with the trees through the use of the same colours, apart from a bright red, transitioning to orange towards the top, in between the trees on the left and right hand side. The leaves are indicated by pink, golden and green paint having been smoothly spread over the other colours.
