Paintings of Cypress Trees

The Monterey cypress tree grows along the rocky coastline of central California, including Monterey, Pacific Grove, Pebble Beach's Seventeen Mile Drive, and Carmel-by-the-Sea. The twisted, abstract shapes of cypress trees also appear in Hanson's paintings of Mendocino and the Oregon coastline. Their strong, ancient forms make a perfect compositional focal point for Hanson's colorful coastal paintings. The most famous cypress tree on the Pacific Coast is Lone Cypress on Seventeen Mile Drive. This iconic cypress tree has been photographed and painted more than any other cypress on the Pacific Coast.

Cypress Trees
Brilliant hues of refracted light glimmer in the coastal fog of Mendocino. The brush strokes are thick and impressionistic, capturing the beauty of the California cypress tree. Erin Hanson's unique approach to oil painting involved pre-mixing her entire palette from a limited selection of five pigments. She then places the brush strokes side by side without layering, creating a mosaic of color and texture across the canvas. This diptych is designed to hang unframed. The sides of the 1-1/2" canvases are painted wrap-around style, so that you can see the painting continue when viewed from the side. Please place the paintings 2" apart on the wall. This piece will be on display at Erin Hanson's solo museum show <i><a href="https://www.erinhanson.com/Event/AlchemistofColor" target="_blank">Erin Hanson: Alchemist of Color</i></a> at the Channel Islands Maritime Museum in Oxnard, California. You may purchase this painting now, but the piece will not be delivered until after the show ends on December 28th, 2023.

There is a little nook I like to photograph when I visit Carmel that has one of the best painting views, in my opinion. I have to scramble underneath a bridge, get snagged by a few blackberry bushes, and end up crouching precariously on the edge of steep cliff -- but the view of overlapping cypress trees and dramatic rock formations is totally worth it.
