Details & Highlights

A hush settles over the forest as soft mist drifts between the pines, giving the scene a quiet, reverent stillness. “Song of the Trees” leans into that mood, inviting the viewer into a moment where time seems to slow. Teresa Bernard’s many years in realism bring a practiced sensitivity to nature’s quieter spaces, especially the calm found in early morning woods.

About This Painting

Muted greens and misty blues sweep across the canvas, revealing a boundless forest of pines that seem to breathe in stillness.

A dense forest of pine trees fills the canvas from edge to edge in this painting. Vertical trunks vary in subtle tone and thickness, with dark green needles clustered in natural rhythm across the upper portions. Wisps of fog drift between the trees, partially obscuring their bases and creating atmospheric layers that dissolve softly into the distance. Toward the top of the painting, the fog thins and reveals a serene sky washed in pale blue. Restrained yet purposeful brushwork defines the scene—fine strokes sculpt each tree with gentle texture, while softer blends create the illusion of depth and quiet motion. The artwork is signed by the artist Teresa Bernard in the lower left corner.

Artist Reflections

I love trees! They enrich our world in so many ways—offering shade, cleaner air, and a quiet sense of renewal. But what draws me to them most is their calming presence and natural beauty. Whether standing alone or gathered in a forest, trees seem to carry a rhythm all their own. I often think of them as nature’s silent musicians, swaying gently to a song we can feel more than hear. Capturing that stillness and harmony on canvas is something I truly enjoy.

—Teresa Bernard, oil painter

A Favorite Poem

This poem echoes the spirit of Song of the Trees—a quiet tribute to nature’s enduring presence.

Song of the Trees
by Mary Colborne-Veel

We are the Trees.
Our dark and leafy glade
Bands the bright earth with softer mysteries.
Beneath us changed and tamed the seasons run:
In burning zones, we build against the sun
Long centuries of shade.

We are the Trees,
Who grow for man’s desire,
Heat in our faithful hearts, and fruits that please.
Dwelling beneath our tents, he lightly gains
The few sufficiencies his life attains—
Shelter, and food, and fire.

We are the Trees
That by great waters stand,
By rills that murmur to our murmuring bees.
And where, in tracts all desolate and waste,
The palm-foot stays, man follows on, to taste
Springs in the desert sand.

We are the Trees
Who travel where he goes
Over the vast, inhuman, wandering seas.
His tutors we, in that adventure brave—
He launched with us upon the untried wave,
And now its mastery knows.

We are the Trees
Who bear him company
In life and death. His happy sylvan ease
He wins through us; through us, his cities spread
That like a forest guard his unfenced head
’Gainst storm and bitter sky.

We are the Trees.
On us the dying rest
Their strange, sad eyes, in farewell messages.
And we, his comrades still, since earth began,
Wave mournful boughs above the grave of man,
And coffin his cold breast.

“I really do like it. What catches my eye is the brightness of the color you used sparingly to accent the leaves which draws the eyes around the entire painting. Not sure if that makes sense, but what I’m describing is a good thing. Well-done. :)” — @Who_Killed_SethRich, Gab
