About the Item
"Africa Trees" is an oil painting inspired by travel in the Hwang National Park in Zimbabwe, in southern Africa. Close to the edge of the Kalahari Desert, it is the largest national reserve of the country and known as a region with little water and sparse vegetation.
The abstract design is what drew artist Carole Garland to paint these twisting trees against a hot parched environment. The horizontal branches, still hanging on to their large crimson-orange leaves at the end of
the September dry season, create a counterpoint to the vertical trees behind. A palette of muted ochres, raw umber, hints of green and mauve, interplay to create a harmonious work that reflects the season, the temperature and the stark beauty that is southern Africa.
The "African Trees" painting on canvas is gallery wrapped with painted sides. It is wired for ease of hanging.
Carole Garland is in art collections throughout the United States. She has appeared in numerous venues throughout Southern California including several juried California Art Club shows, individual shows at
TAG Gallery over 10 years and recently at the Santa Paula Art Museum; Gallery of Hermosa, Hermosa Beach;
Betsy Lueke Creative Arts Center, Burbank; Channel Islands Studio Gallery; Topanga Canyon Gallery and her
florals ca be viewed at Kathryne Designs, Montecito.

Autumn Leaves II
By Carole Garland
Located in Palm Desert, CA
Creekside one can see the rocks, pebbles and leaves at the bottom of the stream or the viewer can observe the water's surface: floating bugs, bubbles, ripples and reflections, but it's difficult to catch the bottom and the surface simultaneously. However, the photographer or artist can capture the stream's surface and pebble strewn bottom at once. Carole Garland set this as her goal in this painting from her "Reflection" series.

Reflections
By Carole Garland
Located in Palm Desert, CA
Carole Garland painted outdoors in the Santa Monica Mountains of Southern California so often that she felt at home creekside or in a wooden glen. In her “Reflection” series, the abstract forms of reflected branches and tree trunks share the composition with solid rocks and trailing leaves. Her use of color is fresh and inspired.
