A lone oak rises from a hedgerow ridge above the farm, its trunk cutting tall through the composition as fields fall away behind. Built with a palette knife in thick, sculpted impasto, the bark and canopy carry real texture and movement, catching light across every ridge of paint. Expressive and grounded, this piece brings the quiet drama of the countryside into any room, whether hung above a sofa, in an entryway, or beside a favourite reading chair.
