Fall Expressionism


This picture is a homage to my artist mother, who died three years ago in October. Her work could be called by the standard "abstract expressionism" and I see no need to change the name. Some of my artist friends have been experimenting with this type of non-representational art on their blogs and posts, so why not me. My mother's favorite things to draw were nude women and trees. She would draw a forest scene like this and then add in some female human figures hiding in the branches. Maybe she was possessed by Dryads.
