The use of bold reds and blues helps to distinguish between different elements, suggesting a contrast between the land and water or different aspects of the natural world.The blobs of color in various hues—whites, purples, yellows—appear to float across the canvas, potentially representing leaves, fruits, or reflections in water. Dove's application of paint gives texture and a tactile quality to the piece, adding depth and movement. The overall composition has a sense of fluidity and dynamism, which could be Dove's way of capturing the ever-changing forms found in nature.Arthur Dove, known for his contributions to American abstract painting, often sought to express the essence of nature through forms and colors rather than literal representations. "Tree Forms and Water" embodies this philosophy, inviting viewers to interpret the natural world through a lens of emotional and sensory experience rather than through realistic depiction.
