Catalina Eucalyptus Leaves

Dimensions: 8 x 10"

Acrylic paint on canvas board 

Eucalyptus trees aren't a native species to Catalina Island, however, they've established themselves over the past decades in different regions of the island and add so much charm and character. 

Their leaves sprinkle the ground here and there in varying sizes and textures, and they hang like falling curtains of water. 

I am so lucky to have several nearby and couldn't help but do a few plein air painting studies of them.
