Birch Trees in the Woods

I don’t think its any secret that I love the beauty of nature. I love to experience it, hike in it and look at it. Most of my inspirations come from my venturing out and looking at the beauty around us and trying to capture it. The art print I am featuring today celebrates just such subtle beauty. I chose “ Birch Trees in the Woods” from my Landscape Oil Collection. This particular art print is from one of my many hikes last year in the Issaquah area of Washington. Issaquah is now an eastern suburb of Seattle, but started as a town located in the foothills of the mountains far away from the big city of Seattle.

Enlightenment

In the very center of it all is understanding. A breath of fresh air to my inner workings of conflict and chaos. I am realizing a sense of calm and I love the color blue. I enjoy circles and in this particular piece of digital artwork I am feeling peaceful. The contrast of colors and the forming of ideas is exciting to me and I always enjoy looking back on what I have allowed the creation of. My pattern work is somewhat of a mystery to me and when I am in a space to create them I feel that they are almost creating themselves. Colors moving through my hands and heart in order to display their beauty to the world. This partcular image was a revelation and I hope that you enjoy it.
