Beauty of the Poinciana

Beauty of the Poinciana is a red poinciana tree against a vivid blue sky and turquoise water. The light and color give it a bold feeling, with scarlet, cobalt blue, turquoise, green, white carrying much of the mood. It can bring atmosphere into a room without making the space feel busy. The smaller shifts in light, color, and distance give the image more to discover over time.

Beauty of the Poinciana is available as a print for people who want to bring its bold feeling into their home. Its light and color work especially well in a space that could use warmth and glow, without overwhelming the room. The print is an easy way to live with the image while keeping the focus on the painting itself.

Printed on stretched canvas with black sides. This is an open-edition print made from Nathan's original painting.

From Nathan: What interested me most in this painting was the light. I wanted scarlet and the surrounding colors to work together naturally, while keeping the scene bold and full of atmosphere. I like leaving enough room in a painting for the viewer to bring some of their own memories and feelings to it.

Original painting: The 9×12 in original is currently available for $2,500.
