Message
Two decaying trees deep in a swampy woods show fall colors and structure to great effect in this landscape painting.
A stroll in late fall finds these trees in perpetual dance at the edge of a marshy area. Although their days of upright growth are behind them, they still imbue the scene with energy and activity, long boughs reaching out as life's experience travels on. I used expressive brush strokes to capture their energy.
