The Narrow Path, 12 x 12
St. Simons Island, GA is known for its huge oak trees which provide wonderful shade and beautiful dappled light. When I saw this path, I was particularly drawn to the contrast between the light in the distance and the sense of shelter under the darkened tree canopy. This site was part of a plantation in the early 1800's. Now it's the home of Epworth By The Sea, a beautiful conference grounds (and a favorite painting location for me!)
Another beauty Laurel,well done.

ReplyDeleteGreat painting Laurel! My eye is drawn directly to where the tree casts a shadow on the path. It was fun painting with you today. Thanks for the wise words on blogging. You will be happy to know that this is my first ever blog comment!
ReplyDeleteHi Laurel,
ReplyDeleteThis painting feels like it holds a story. The tree is so magnificently alive. So much feeling is expressed so beautifully.
