Lovely design and palette. It looks like a pollination of sorts in process.

Thank you very much! It is nice to run my fingers across it and feel the branches of the tree.

It is amazing how you can achieve movement with a monotype print... Also, with so few lines to make a figure, one can still imagine a story behind that tree and the wind.
Being red such an agressive/passionate color, it is beautifully handled with that yellow, so it ends up transmitting a romantic feeling instead.
I would need a favorite-of-favorites folder for this monotypes your doing -congratulations Seth!

It does feel like a windy day. The fall colours are captivating. And, like always, I love the texture you achieved. The white space really drags my eye to the tree and keep my eye keeps roving upwards and out and then back again, following the leaves blowing away.

Very good! I love the way the raised paint makes for very tactile tree limbs. Nice effect! And the paint in the background ... very well done. Like wind is taking the tree limbs (love the wave to them) and leaves and stripping some of them away, into ... who knows?

Yes I like the vein/branch look of the texture created from the print.
Thank you!

I put a dab of paint on the painting surface, laid a sheet of paper on it and pressed it. To get the branches I then pulled the sheet of paper off of the painting surface, from the top.

Oh this is just beautiful I love how the puckering of the paint forms the branches of the tree, and how the leaning mirrors the other smudges to create a sense of movement - wind perhaps.

Thank you! After the print, I kept seeing a tree being blown or moving some how.
