BIRCH GROVE    16 x 24

 Birches are a popular selection for painters and many have been produced with a similar setting. Each one has its own flavor based upon lighting effects, range of tones, point of view, and so on. An earlier version of this painting appeared some time ago, but here is the completed product following suggestions by the friend who commissioned the painting. The stark white is a sharp contrast to the surrounding area, and that is why we love our birches.
