Item Description
White Birch Original Oil on Wood 48" x 60" Painting by Daniel Tousignant
Daniel Tousignant's luminous birch paintings create an impact that pulls the viewer directly into nature. While he recalls the flat, empty landscape he knew as a boy, growing up on a dairy farm in Minnesota, it is his later memories of traveling by train from London to Amsterdam that inspire these birch paintings.
His painting style further evolved when he purchased a home in Maine to spend the summers. There, painting in seclusion, surrounded by beautiful birch trees, he began this magnificent series of birch trees.
When looking at Tousignant's paintings, whether black or white backgrounds, one sees composition, that is constructed with almost architectural precision. The lines of the trees and bright green lichen are contrasted with the emptiness of stark backgrounds, all of which catch our attention and hold it longer than one would expect, and the visual experience stays with us even after we look away.
