Painting Acrylic on Canvas by Brian Sindler: Tree Clouds, Framed

The trees have massed into something like a cloud, and the clouds do not mind.

Tree Clouds is a painting by Brian Sindler, acrylic on canvas, from about 2019. Landscapes like this are painted for the walls of homes and offices, giving a room a sense of weather and distance. Dark blue-green trees gather in one great mound across the lower half, leaning to the right. A pale gap opens beneath them, lit by a yellow-white cloud at the horizon. The sky above is a soft grey with patches of dusty pink and a second bright cloud near the top corner. The brushwork stays loose and quiet throughout. Thirty-six inches square.

It is about to rain, or it has just stopped.
