Eucalyptus Leaves V

Crazy bright orange new growth waving and dancing on the top of a eucalyptus tree reminding me of an intricate Calder mobile branching out to smaller and smaller leaves.
Watercolor, 7"x 7"

Dean Grey said...: This one's unique, Susan!

I love the combination of fully formed leaves against the older crumbling leaves, against the new growth just beginning to emerge.

I don't think I've ever seen someone capture a "circle of life" scene like that in painting before!

Like all of your paintings, this has a lot of movement in it without even trying.

The vibrant colors just top it all off and make it complete!

In the History of this Blog there are Paintings, as I Was Once a Member of the Daily Painters

If you have the notion to travel back many moons, you can view the paintings, some, of which are still for sale. Here's more info on the paintings: I use 140lb watercolor paper. The paintings are $120. matted with an off white acid free mat to fit a 10"x 10" frame. If you want to purchase the painting framed. I use a black gallery wood frame, 10"x 10" with glass. The price of the painting framed is $160.00 which includes shipping within the USA. (You do not need a pay pal account to use the purchase button located beneath my paintings.) The collaboration paintings are a combined effort between my granddaughter and myself. She puts down the paint and I find the characters and story within. Please check out my LARGER PAINTINGS.
