Framed Winter Tree Artwork
Trees portray the magic of every season, flowers bloom in spring, lush green in summer and golden burnt red foliage in autumn. But in winter, even without their leaves, trees are still a magical element to the world. Their dark trunks and branches contrasted against soft snowy whites and dark gloomy greys are perfectly captured in framed winter tree art.
The trees can be wet with rain, heavy with snow like in Ansel Adams’ ‘Pine Forest in the Snow, Yosemite Nation’, dripping with ice crystals or hidden by fog like in Stan Shire’s ‘White Fog #1’. Some framed winter tree snow art depicts the first snow such as ‘First Snow’ by Ray Hendershot. Others portray the snow-covered trees at night such as ‘Village in winter’ by Thelma Ieaney Butler and ‘New Moon’ by Ray Hendershot.
The truest framed winter tree paintings, however, amplify the disparity between light and dark. The trees are dark but alive. The snow is white and light, but lifeless. This is captured brillianty by artists like Patrick St Germain and Teri Jonas who simply details bare trees, thick trunks with a single leaf on its branches, in quiet snow covered forests.
However, you do not need an artist’s free creative license to capture such stunning scenes. These works aren’t the figment of imagination and are often captured truly and realistically and unaltered in framed winter tree photography. Artists such as David Lorenz Winston have many such images including ‘Quiet Woods’, ‘Past Dreams’, ‘Solitude’ and ‘Tranquility’ and also Ilona Wellman in ‘Silhouettes of Winter II’ and ‘Winter Tree Line I’.
