Sketch Painting by Brian Sindler: Maple Frame

Two trees lean into the wind, all hair and limbs against a violet sky.

Sketch Painting; Maple Frame, Number 10, is an acrylic on board by Brian Sindler, made between 2020 – 2024 CE. Small sketches on board are generally made quickly to record a particular light or mood rather than a finished scene. Dark, feathery crowns of foliage are brushed in blue and black over thin reddish trunks. A band of warm yellow-orange glows low on the horizon, under layers of purple cloud. A brown slope of ground runs along the bottom. The paint is thick and the strokes are loose. It is framed in maple, 7 inches wide and 7 high, with an image of 6 by 6.

Wind, by the look of it, with opinions.
