About the Work
"I
like
the
way
the
artist
uses
contrast
in
the
painting
to
create
beautiful
shadows
in
the
tree
trunk.
Throughout
the
painting
I
noticed
that
she
uses
a
lot
of
pastel
colours
which
makes
me
think
of
a
spring
morning.
With
the
hints
of
white
in
the
apple
tree
supporting
the
idea
of
spring
with
its
flowers.
I
love
the
little
dirt
path
coming
into
the
foreground
because
it
adds
something
else
to
observe
and
follow
in
the
painting."
