It is from a photograph I took of an apple tree in blossom in the spring time of 2025, in Patcham in Brighton, where we live. I loved the colours and composition, as the sun shone through the canopy, each flower is reaching for the light. Springtime blossom feels like the reward for enduring the winter transition. As the weather gets warmer, the fruit trees burst into blossom with flowers, it fills the air with scent and colour. To me this is a beautiful demonstration of Gods eternal blessings, as new life bounds forth in springtime, full of optimism and hope for the days ahead. Just as each life has its own seasons, if we just look up and take the time to notice the beauty all around us and that change and growth is part of every life.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe artistic style of this botanical painting is \u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eClassical Impressionistic Realism\u003c\/span\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtwork details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 25 x 20 cm (10\" x 8 \")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCanvas board depth: \u003c\/strong\u003e3mm (1\/8\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMedium:\u003c\/b\u003e Oil paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSurface:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eCanvas board\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDate of creation:\u003c\/b\u003e 28th December 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoPlainText\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eVarnish:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cspan\u003eGamblin Gamvar Satin varnish (12 Sept 2026)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoPlainText\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTable top easel supplied\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoPlainText\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs a one off piece I would like to include the table top easel (pictured) as part of the sale, to be \u003c\/span\u003eshipped with this \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003esmall canvas painting study, which is ideal for any desk, or shelf at home, or in your office.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoPlainText\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFraming\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoPlainText\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eIf you prefer to hang the painting, then any small standard frame, will work, for this canvas board 25 x 20 cm (10\" x 8\") with a depth of 3mm (1\/8\"). \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs framing is a personal choice, please note that all paintings are sold and shipped as \u003cb\u003eunframed\u003c\/b\u003e. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReference images \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eFrom an original photograph, taken by Martin Buckwell in May 2025.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIncluded with purchase\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCertificate of Authenticity available with purchase.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eStatement of usage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOriginal artwork, created for sale by the artist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Artist reserves the right to make copies of the original.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Martin Buckwell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57282978120004,"sku":null,"price":160.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0976\/7609\/9908\/files\/Tree_Blossom_painting25x20cm_b27ac834-b192-41d0-9fcb-9e7c90398423.jpg?v=1790171478","url":"https:\/\/martinbuckwell.com\/products\/tree-blossom","provider":"Martin Buckwell","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
