Artist
Darice Machel McGuire
Medium
Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
The Banyan Tree in Lahaina is a Maui landmark. It was planted in 1873 and has grown to the size of an entire city block. It stands over 60 feet high and provides a lot of shade for those hot Lahaina days. Every night at sunset thousands of birds come to roost in the branches for the night. The sound of so many birds can be deafening.
Painting the banyan tree has been on my to do list for quite some time. Before deciding on just the right angle I took many reference photos at different times of day. I finally settled on the composition you see here.
At this stage the tree is really taking shape. You can now get a since of the depth of those branches.
