"Two Cedar Trees"
14"x18" 1-1/2" Deep, Painted Sides. Oil on Canvas.
$ 600

I came across these two cedar trees in Ste. Genevieve County. Immediately, they reminded me of Vangogh's Cypresses. So, I walked around them, positioned the barn in view and snapped the photo in a vertical format to include more of that incredible sky. Later, while I was painting it, I couldn't help exaggerate the form of the Cedar trees to mimick that of the Cypress.
