My Red Maple

My painting workspace can at times be quite become quite cluttered, with paints, brushes, sample pieces, sketches and books competing for the best locations.  One of the books most frequently open for study and inspiration is a big hard cover book about the Group of Seven painters, which includes Tom Thomson.  Within that treasure of wonderous beauty are a number of paintings that feature a stark young red maple sapling against a northern backdrop.  While working away at this painting, I studied those works intensely and decided that this piece was to be 'my red maple painting', hence the name.  
Complimentary colours are lend a striking vibrancy to any work and they play a significant role in causing the work to 'pop'.
Framed painting is available for purchase at the Kilby Gallery in Clarksburg Ontario.
