One of my most favorite places to escape to is Through the trees...
(this is the second piece in the series)
My imagination holds this wonderful place dear. A clearing before the woods, where from time to time traveler's stop for a rest.
You might get to meet all sorts of wonderful people coming from a magical place deep in the woods, or, on their way there.
For what lives beyond the woods, is well, the most wondrous place you can imagine...
The moon illuminates fluffy moist clouds, creating the most curious glow of evening moonlight. Traveler's stop to rest, and build a fire...
Inviting anyone at all, to stop and roast some homemade marshmallows, while guitar strings fill the air...
Through the Trees, on a very enchanted evening...
I took some photos through a magnifying glass below...
As it was impossible to zoom into the tiny little details.
I have spent many many months inside of this piece.
Going to a place, only the imagnation can take a person, really.
I have slept inside the wooden wagon, charming as can be. And made toast in a campfire, while music drifted in on misty waves of gentle breeze - with sounds a bit like the magical tunes of a child's piano dancing through the trees...
There is lovely hot tea served by these most kind hearted folks, and the tales they can spin, oh my!
Through the Trees ~ Enchanted Evening
The second piece in this series.
16" x 20" x 1.5"
Now available in my online shop, right here.
(the first piece in this series sold last year, and lives in a place very very far away)
I am so glad to finally get to share this piece - after almost a year. I put in the sky and the trees and the wagon right away. And outlined the people.
Then I waited to put in the moon and the stars, and the billowing skirt.
You have to be just in the right place, where you can crawl into a piece, and really be there, to bring it all together. At least, that is how my brain works ;)
Now, if only we could all get together right in the painting... And head through the woods to the most amazing place imaginable....
Will I see you there?
Love, V
