The painting is a homage to a painting by Matthew Davis, whose colourful pointillism painting has been on the wall of our dining room ever since I can remember.
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, with bright red to orange accents, 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.
