Description
Due to the todays DD on this work i found the chance to leave some decent comment here
This image was painted on a canvas,dimensions: 28,19 cm X 38,06 cm.Medium i used on this one is acrylics,image had some brightness/contrast adjuments in the end at photoshop cs3.My influence on this comes for some old painter masters and mostly Rembrandt-who is my favorite one,also,the city i live is located near to some mountains where dark forests like this one can be found,so when i have the time i do visit those places not only because they are beautiful but mostly to get some inspiration.Forest themes under this gamma are my favorites...and the landscapes i face during my little trips there give me the power and the needed feeling to create those kind of works.
Thank you all guys for looking and for visiting my gallery...your support-in any way,favorites,watch lists,etc.,
are highly appreciated!
more works like this will come eventually,stay tuned Print of this image is now available.

Fantastic painting. The rich colours used instantly made me think of Autumn days. the composition leads the eye nicely along the water to the centre of the painting. Its good to see the build up of the brush strokes as you study it over time.
well done there.

Beautiful work, my favorite aspect is the ability for a traditional piece to make think as though I must squint. Dark yet powerful with light , not sure if original is as powerful but this is perfect. Paint Hard!
