The peaceful nature of this image appealed to me as well as its sense of the circle of life. I was drawn in by the contrast of the stark whites of the fallen trees against the greens of the vegetation and by the graceful bowing of the branches towards the water. The idea of trying to capture the lacy effect in between the branches, called to me. A good portion of the lacy effect was created by painting with the wrong end of the paintbrush!
This painting gave me a sense of peace while painting it. It is a gentle painting and one I am glad I painted.
