"Esprit Végétal"; An imaginary tree portrait. A little unusual, very original in its sobriety. It exudes a sense of purity and character. Light as lace, almost diaphanous, and yet so present against its dark background, it almost has a certain "ghostly" but benevolent quality; a forest spirit. The foliage is painted in shades of beige, yellow ochre, ivory and white; colors reminiscent of gold. The trunk is painted with gold and bronze pigments, transparent and slightly shiny. The back is solid black. The overall ambience is rather dark, but it catches and reflects light perfectly, so it would be wise to place it near or in front of a light source. The finish is matte. The edges of the canvas are painted in a natural sienna color. Nature at night, almond tree in blossom, glittering tree, black, beige, bronze, chiaroscuro, figurative art
