Swanton, into the Woods

"Swanton into the Woods" - acrylic on board - 12"x12"x1" wrap-around painting framed in a black floater frame: 14"x14"x1.5"

I am drawn not only to the beauty within a scene, but am careful to include beckoning elements of light/shadow, repetition and depth. Scenes chosen revolve around a dance of light/shadow and its own sense of invitation to explore; pathways are common to include for this reason. Quiet, hidden, reflective/introspective....lush; these are things I look for. I am polarized by scenes that make me forget my troubles and I feel "enveloped", even if just for a moment.

Swanton, Ohio Oak Openings Metropark inspired Fall painting.
