Fitz Maurice won the
Jackson Pollock-Lee Krasner Award based
primarily on the paintings from this
Tree Series. This New York Foundation
gives awards based on artistic merit
after reviewing an artist’s portfolio.
The art must reflect a consistant
professional level over ten years time.
This Tree Series was also featured in
the 2003 issue of, “Art in America.”
While globe-trotting, the artist keeps
both eyes peeled for outstanding trees.
Many of these tree paintings were
inspired by trees found in Europe,
Canada, Hawaii, and Big Sur,
California. Fitz has learned a lot
about life from so closely studying and
capturing the lives of trees. “It’s
been interesting for me to watch people
personally identifying with a particular
tree.”
