Olive tree in Tuscany Painting

I was swept away by an old a bit neglected olive grove in Tuscany. The trees, the ground covered by wild flowers, the shrubbery, this all triggered an ancient feeling inside me and inspired me to make a little series of a bit magical paintings. In this painting I was most focused on a tree at the foreground with its special form en structure. I choose for the new high quality acrylics which gave me the possibility to apply the paint in very varied ways as spraying, dripping, scratching and not only using a brush. In this way I tried to mimic better the organic structures of the threes and plants. I also wanted to go a little further of realism direction abstraction.
