Northern Red Oak: Framed Plein Air Color Match Illusion
This oil painting captures a northern red oak tree at the pique of its seasonal change, painted as an illusion to blend in with the tree. The painting features the tree’s foliage in an array of browns, yellows, and oranges, juxtaposed with a cool grayish woodline peeping through the leaves.
Environmental Responsibility: Created with high-efficiency, solvent-free methods that reflect years of intentional, low-impact practice.
Northern Red Oak Trees: Native to the eastern and central U.S., northern red oak is a hardwood known for its vibrant autumn colors. It produces acorns that feed many woodland animals and provides important refuge, shade, and habitat. These trees can live up to 300 years under favorable conditions but are somewhat vulnerable to water damage. Northern red oaks are endearing for many reasons, including their fast growth, generous support of wildlife, and role as a symbol of transformation through seasonal beauty.

Black frame (6.5” x 5”) custom-built for the piece
