There's a quality of light and stillness in those places that I keep returning to. This painting comes out of all of that time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVan Gogh is never far from my mind when I work with olive trees. He painted them obsessively near the institution at Saint-Rémy, and for him they carried enormous weight — a former preacher, he connected the groves to the Garden of Gethsemane, to suffering and to solace. I feel something of that when I'm in them too. There's an ancient quality to olive trees, a sense that they've witnessed a great deal and are entirely unbothered by it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe palette here — those bright blues and yellows — is very Vincent. I wasn't trying to hide that. It felt right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedium: Oil on Canvas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 40 × 44 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Unframed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: United States\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-of-a-kind original\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShipped in a crate and handled with care. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michael Rich Studios","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54313511911637,"sku":null,"price":3500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/7778\/8117\/files\/IntheGrove-2.jpg?v=1784650571","url":"https:\/\/michaelrichstudios.com\/products\/grove-oil-painting","provider":"Michael Rich Studios","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
