I have made a study of the crabapples along Minnehaha Parkway in Minneapolis, and was watching this year for my opportunity to capture what is considered to be a "white" bloosomed tree!  Of course, it has every color in it, including ochre, peach, green'grey and lavender, so i had a great time swimming and basking in its beauty.  I made 2 watercolor studies, worked 5 hours on site and finished it in my studio...



It is 16" x 20" original size, chalk pastel on sandpaper, framed under museum glass with a creme linen liner. $950 available at Vern, Carver & Beard Gallery, 612-339-3449.
