This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Solitary Oak (aka The Old Oak) designed from a painting by Asher Brown Durand shows the stunning silhouette of a very large oak tree basking in the glow of a beautiful sunset. The sky is showing remnants of blue, but the golden glow is slowly taking over and soon it will be night. The cattle and sheep have gathered under the tree and some are further down the path near a watering hole. This artwork is a pristine vision of nature painted in the Romanticism style. It's truly a masterpiece, and it's one that will go on my list of patterns to stitch in the future. If you are a big tree lover like me, this is stunning pattern that will promote conversation from guests for years to come when it is displayed on your wall. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. We only use an abundance of solid colors to produce a more realistic effect.
