The Presence of Trees: Paintings by Lori Nelson Clonts

Facing the blank canvas was often overwhelming for painter Lori Nelson Clonts, so she assigned herself a single subject: trees. “Some of the paintings are portraits of particular trees, and some are representations of the places trees make,” says Lori, “but all of them are an attempt to honor the magnificent creatures that stand rooted in the centers of our whirling, hurried, human lives.”
