Environmental Responsibility: I prioritize environmentally responsible artmaking practices, ensuring the optimization of materials and minimal waste during the creation of this piece.
The Location and Crab Apple Trees: This painting was created at a boat launch and botanical garden in North Tonawanda, NY in April of 2024. The launch is on the historic Erie Canal. The crab apple trees are at their peak bloom for only a few short weeks of the year, so I prioritized painting as many flowering trees as I could during 2024’s spring. Crabapple trees have been treasured throughout history; they’ve been considered to banish evil while also representing love and wisdom.
