About Prince

This contemporary mixed-media landscape featuring a tree is by Peter Hoffer.

In this charming landscape, a single tree resplendent in pink blossoms takes center stage on the canvas. Cast against an expressive blue/blush sky, the tree is surrounded by a tapestry of soft greens and pastel colours.
Highly regarded for his romantic landscapes, the Canadian artist has created a series of tree ‘portraits,’ each one appears to reflect a different personality, and evoke a different mood. Markings, and scratches—a signature of Hoffers’ work add visible character.

“I wanted to do the landscape in a manner in which it is personified. Where the tree becomes the individual, even playing on some clichés." Peter Hoffer
