A Stand of Birch Trees is an art print I created using an impasto oil technique. This technique uses bold brush strokes and bright color tones creating a traditional oil painting look. This particular print depicts a stand of birch trees along a hiking path in the forest. The setting is Issaquah, Washington located in the foothills of the Cascade Mountain range to the east of Seattle. Once a small stop along the rail line between Seattle to the west and North Bend in the Cascade Mountains to the east, this town has become a thriving and vibrant suburb within the metropolitan area of Seattle.
