Twilight Woods

Brightscapes: The Way To Beauty

acrylic paint of canvas board

I follow the winding path not knowing where I'll end up. The trees rustle in the breeze stirring up the aromas of the forest. A freshness one always has to remind themselves of in civilization. The light refracts in strange ways at this time. It's when the surreal becomes the real. 

This piece would work in a small-to-medium space that is dark red, dark orange, light yellow, green, light blue, dark purple black, white, grey, beige, or wood.
