Description
This painting came to me in a whirlwind of joyful expression. The woods in my Alaskan back yard have always provided me with endless inspiration. While I painted with the soft, silky pastels, a path emerged among the trees that was not there in my reference. I went with it. A meadow in the back appeared where a gravel pit was before. It was an enchanting experience.I was reminded of how often we can reach a point in our journey where the growth and obstacles are impenetrable. Suddenly, at the point of giving up, a shift in the wind or light opens our eyes and we find a path, where there was none before.

I think you are quickly becoming one of my favorite people on deviant art. Another gorgeous piece. The use of purple at the base of the trees, just lovely. Your paintings always use colors in such a powerful way, it makes everything feel very dreamy and surreal. Love it.
