Maren Roelofsen (1984) - The Gathering Tree

The Gathering Tree is an original, hand-painted artwork from my Santa Fe Series – a collection that translates the warmth, calm, and timeless beauty of special places into abstract expressionism.

Inspired by a characteristic tree with organic, almost sculptural forms, this painting invites you to pause and enjoy. Soft turquoise and dark green hues flow together with warm terracotta, deep red, and a light background of beige and yellow. By carefully sanding the paint, the harsh lines disappear and a dreamy, layered composition emerges that reveals a different mood at every moment of the day.

The Gathering Tree symbolizes a place where people come together, where memories are made, and where calm and connection are central. It is a painting that not only enriches a space with color and warmth, but also evokes a feeling of coming home.

This is a one-of-a-kind artwork. There is only one original. No reproductions or prints, but an exclusive piece that is entirely handmade and thus has its own character and aura.

My paintings are part of private collections in the Netherlands and abroad. With The Gathering Tree you have the chance to acquire a unique work from the beloved Santa Fe Series – a painting that stands out for its refined color use, soft depth, and timeless look.

A special artwork for the collector who is seeking authenticity, exclusivity, and a piece that will continue to inspire for years to come. Seize this opportunity to become the owner of an original that exists nowhere else in the world.
