Interesting piece. I like the contrast of the dark trunk/branches to the firey, orange leaves!

Mad Guru,
Thank you. Actually the contrast on the actual tree should be seen to be believed - it was a rainy day and the bark had turned a deeper brown. Imagine this deep colour against the rain washed orange leaves! That was a sight to behold!

bingo and betty,
Thank you. This is a 11X14 acrylic and watercolour on paper done 2 years ago.

Suji,
You are right - this is from some reference photos I shot.

Pallava,
Thank you - it was done sometime back.

Jo,
Thank you - it is watercolour and acrylic.

Amrita,
Thank you and welcome to my blog.

Meghjanmi,
Thank you for your inspiring words!
