A personal favourite. I painted this strange image many years ago (approximately 1996). I used my fingers instead of paint brushes to move the oil paints over the canvas paper. The mysterious trees and ‘people’ seemingly took shape on their own… What do you think is happening in the painting?
Thank-you Natella2020. I appreciate your comments! This artwork was actually painted about 11 years ago, but remains one of my favourite pieces. I used my fingers (instead of paintbrushes) to spread the oil over the canvas paper. It was a fun piece to create!
This painting has a dreamlike quality. I love the colours. It seems to me as if these people are walking through the plantation measuring the girth of the trees and deciding which trees will be cut down. Or else – a happier situation – they are only birdwatching :-)
Wow, thanks Dorothy for your comments. I can see the stories that you imagine in this image! I would much rather they were birdwatching, but I am not sure it is a completely happy situation. Thanks for your lovely thoughts :-)
that’s so trippy..you know I’m into the whole alien thing ..Big time..
and I was going to come in here and say that it reminds me of aliens in a forest ..and space crtaft ..
you gotta be kidding me..so you meant it to be that ..wow!!

Thank-you Lucindawind. Yes, this piece always reminds me of aliens in a forest and strange spacecraft lights too. Glad to hear that I am not alone!
