The Cork Tree. NOTE: (Currently being worked on adding a botanical detail as in Loquat tree, will publish when done)
Cork tree is a long wide southern Portuguese landscape with a lone mature cork tree in the centre of the canvas. A nº 7 is painted on the trunk in white paint,as a reminder of when next the cork has to be removed. The areas where the cork was harvested from the tree exposed a bright reddish orange of the tree. This is an evergreen tree and always offers shade in this sometimes excruciatingly hot climate. Two black pigs a foraging for acorns around the tree. On the left-hand side suspended on a swing is a young woman dressed in a flowing gown with long flowing hair. Her mood is of a person lost in her own world. Bright blue sky and dry grass emanating a feel of the southern part of Portugal. Signed Gideon Nel 2018.
