Tree with Creeping Vines
Oil on Canvas, 1999, 36" x 24"

I was really fascinated with this roadside scene on Martha's Vineyard, which had a lot of contrasts in light, shape, and texture. I liked the way the tree broke up the picture, and brought the black up from the bottom and spread it out like tentacles up, to the right, and to the left.
