This series of work is principally associated with the Birch trees and landscape of New England through the poem Birches, by Robert Frost. He was a beloved New Hampshire poet of traditional verse forms and metrics who remained steadfastly aloof. This piece in particular is a study of the light that falls though the birch trees.

The author used often dark meditations on universal themes, His use of Birch trees to show universal themes is why I chose his work for this series. The painting titles are influences by his poem, Birches. This particular series explores the shapes of these trees in a more abstract and bright palette.
