Donald Carlisle Greason

Artist, American, 1897 - 1981

The image shows a side view of a cluster of palm trees leaning towards a body of water. The horizon is low in the composition with distant clouds and landforms. The brushstrokes are light and fluid, defining the trees. The color palette is soft and monochromatic with shades of sepia. The ground is shaded for texture, while the background appears open and uncluttered.
