Looking
back on painting these
Palm Trees
in non-traditional colors
I think my New England heritage
was making an
Appearance.
Though I may be living in the desert
these days my heart
will always be in New England
in the Fall.
So I guess it was only natural
for me to combine
my fascination with the Palm Trees of my current surrondings
with my love for the colors of
New England in the fall.

Been having a little love affair with Palm Trees as of late.  

Love the easy breezy relaxed way they have about them.

Their graceful sway,

The I don't have a care in the world sound.

Just makes you want to sit under one and enjoy a coconut cocktail.

So I decided it might be fun to play with some Palm Trees in the studio.

There's the more traditional palm, 

colors and style.

And

The less traditional with loose free knife strokes

using purple and pink colors.
