Australian Pine Tree by Mary Murphy, artist. Australian Pine Tree is an original hand painted abstract oil painting on canvas 20" x 20" with a 1.25" black frame. This colorful, painting was created en plein air (French for "open air") to capture the emotions of the landscape and bring them to you for your enjoyment. It is contemporary in style with expressionism overtones.
I found this tree in the Jaycee Park at the end of Beach Parkway in Cape Coral, FL. The Australian pine tree is a beautiful, but invasive tree which grows to 100' in height and blows is the wind like a huge feather fan. Several can be found in this park, mainly designed for picnicing along the Caloosahatchee River. If you are interested in unusual trees, perhaps this painting is for you. Or, if you have a collection of paintings of trees, perhaps you would like to add this to your collection. Maybe, it just makes you smile.
