Jacaranda trees

A tree-lined avenue unfolds in luminous perspective, the gnarled trunks of jacaranda trees creating a rhythmic corridor beneath a canopy of lavender and violet blooms. Polson employs bold, gestural brushwork to render both the architectural geometry of the path and the softness of flowering boughs, whilst the ground plane vibrates with purples, ochres and greens. The composition balances structured recession with expressive colour application, evoking a serene, contemplative walk through a tranquil place. Working in oil on canvas, the artist channels colour itself as a vehicle for mood and presence.
