Description:

The Palms and I is a part of a small collection called: The Trees and I consisting of three textured oil paintings.

In The Trees and I collection, we are putting nature first — recognizing trees as living presences rather than silent scenery. Each painting celebrates a moment of communion between human and tree.

Through textured surfaces and earthy tones, the series blurs the boundary between body and bark, gesture and growth. The figures are not simply standing beside the trees; they are in conversation with them — dancing with the baobab’s grounded strength, reaching for the palms’ graceful rhythm, and swaying in harmony with the willow’s tender motion.

Together, these works remind us that the trees have always been our companions — silent witnesses to our stories, protectors of our breath, and essential structures for our resilience. The Trees and I is both a tribute and a gentle call to rekindle our kinship with the natural world, to see the life around us as an extension of our own.

Material:

Each painting is created on a wooden board coated with crushed pumice, a volcanic stone that gives the surface a raw, organic texture. Soft layers of oil paint are then applied in muted tones, creating the illusion of artwork painted on weathered stone or an aged wall.

Frame and finish:

The painting comes framed in the frame featured on the pictures, ready to hang, signed on the back, and with a certificate of authenticity. The frame is glassless to show off the beautiful texture in this painting.
