Spring Bloom, oil on canvas, 8×10

Surprised by Nature

In the middle of a small glade, I saw this white blooming tree that stuck out like a sore thumb (but in a good way!). I decided I wanted to do a simple sketchy painting of it, hopefully capturing its prominence against the vibrant greens and ruddy browns of early Spring, before most trees have really started blooming. A painting like this is a nice reminder of the simplicity of painting and the small joys of being surprised by nature.

Several sizes of print are available for this painting, here: Spring Bloom – Adam Kenney Art
