Environmental Responsibility: I prioritize environmentally responsible artmaking practices, ensuring the optimization of materials and minimal waste during the creation of this piece.
Location and Crabapple Trees: This painting was created at a dock in North Tonawanda along the historic Erie Canal. I eagerly awaited the arrival of spring to capture the crabapple trees at their peak bloom. Native to temperate regions, crabapple trees are valued for their beautiful blossoms and resilience. They symbolize hope, love, and renewal, and are a favorite of birds like orioles, which are often seen flitting among the spring blossoms.
