Description
Tree with Leaves – golden foliage beneath a storm sky
A strikingly tall format and a single slender tree: an almost black trunk grows left of centre across the full height of the canvas and forks only high up, where the crown fills the upper edge. Autumn gold-amber foliage hangs from the branches in heavy, rounded layers.
Technique & Texture
The painting’s signature is its hanging strands: from the upper right branch, twigs loaded with round golden leaves descend along the right side of the canvas and drip all the way to the middle of the canvas. This is a hand-painted painting – every leaf is a separate, rounded relief stroke.
The Motif
Above seethes a violet-grey and indigo sky with pale teal-white gaps, brightest behind the dense golden cluster at the fork of the trunk; the lower third is a warm rust-copper haze of autumn ground, and the very bottom edge sinks into darkness.
Styling & Placement
Wall art for narrow walls, hallways and tall rooms; the dramatic sky and warm foliage complement each other beautifully in calm interiors. In evening light the golden leaves glow.

The first photograph shows it from the side on an easel in our workshop, the golden leaves standing off the canvas, and the second photograph shows the opposite side above the rust-copper lower third. Each leaf of Tree with Leaves is a separate relief stroke, hand-painted, not printed.
Who is the Tree with Leaves painting for?
Tree with Leaves is for anyone who loves autumn and a dramatic sky: a single slender, almost black tree grows the full height of the canvas, gold-amber foliage hangs from its branches in heavy, rounded layers, and above it a violet-grey and indigo sky seethes. Because the format is so tall, Tree with Leaves fills a narrow wall in a hallway, by the stairs or in a room with a high ceiling, and in the evening the golden leaves glow.
