Tree Fantasy
1950

A painting featuring an abstract landscape with stylized trees in various colors against a muted background. The foreground is dominated by an orange field with visible brush strokes, while the background consists of a greenish sky and dark hills. Each tree is uniquely colored: one is red with black outlines, another is white with gray lines, a third is dark green, and the last one is light blue with a textured pattern. The artist's signature is visible in the bottom right corner.
