Welcome to the spring, ladies, and gentlemen. Let us feel grateful we are passing by halfway through this epidemic that affected us very badly, we are survivors.
Above, this content the painting location is around my house in Long Island. Even more, breezy, I recalled, but it did not stop me from capturing this daylight effect over the leaves. Alongside, the weeping cherry bloomed for three to four weeks, beginning in April. After flowering, the tree produces a shiny green leaf with serrated edges. In the course of time, the beautiful hue of pink disappears very soon like a dream.
There are times when I render figures with many details. Nonetheless, I leave that to the studio paintings, not when painting outdoors. The beauty relies upon different forms that create a random effect, almost a la prima technique. Very exciting. This is the first time I have published this painting. Even though, the weeping cherry tree video was published four years ago. Indeed, the painting needed to age like wine.

Likewise, the cherry tree and its flowers last a short time but let me tell you, the fragrance that releases during the brief period is unforgettable. Also, to mention where it came from it will surprise you! It is an American hybrid original from France. It blooms in different shades, and this one, in particular, has shades of white, pink, and purple.
Onward, like most of my artwork, they have no finish. Further, I leave it for routine evaluation, day by day. To sum up, some paintings should be left alone for their spontaneity. Nevertheless, I decided to go as it is. Enjoy the view, thank you.
