Trees

Today I scoured the web looking at some of my favorite artists and printmakers. I noticed that many of the prints that caught my eye had those gorgeous living specimens that we commonly call trees. So simply put, here are some of my favorite artists and tree prints.

Brooks Shane Salzwedel is an artist out of Los Angeles who recently had a show at the Black Maria Gallery.

I love how the greens and blues work together in this print by another LA based artist Melissa Moss.

I have long admired Rachel Salomon’s work. How beautiful are these prints? Okay, I am officially inspired now and must get back to the studio at once! Tomorrow, I will write about another passion of mine: green design!

These are all so beautiful. I was just working on a much simpler set of trees for a child’s room.

Interesting post. My friend, Marianne Green, just finished a series depicting trees in an abstracted way, they’re very beautiful. Her show is opening tonight in Austin TX.
