Art can deeply capture and convey emotions. This is evident in the painting named "Cherry Tree (Cri de Coeur II)".

The artwork is a therapeutic tool for the artist and those who view it. It tells a story of resilience and transformation, symbolised by the figure growing on the bark of a cherry tree, representing protection from pain and loss.

Despite the cuts and scars, delicate twigs emerge, reminding us that beauty can flourish even in adversity.

The painting's colours, textures, and composition evoke a range of emotions, allowing viewers to navigate their feelings as they contemplate the message.

"Cherry Tree Before Felling" is a testament to the healing power of art, capturing human emotions in a way that words cannot express.

Explore the intricacies of the painting, how it catalyses healing and introspection, and how it invites us to embrace the complexity of our emotions.

This painting was created on Belgian linen canvas, four layers of primer, high-quality acrylic paints, and three coats of varnish.

50 x 65 x 2 centimetres

Impressionist with a tinge of surrealism as a style.

Although it lacks a frame, the painting is ready to be hung thanks to a sawtooth bracket fastened to the rear of the wooden stretcher bars.

White paint finishes off the edges of the stretched canvas. It's up to you whether you want to frame the painting or not.
