Sort of a surreal landscape. I wish I had painted this larger (this was 5 inches X 7 inches) but then I would have added even more details to muck it up, as I can rely on myself to do.
I don't know how I feel about this painting. I still like the concept. I suppose I didn't achieve what I wanted. Still, it's strange. So it's satisfactory. and It has trees! TREES!

Moon Shadow by ~RedEyeLoon grounds you in a forest, but allows your mind to wander through the skies. (

oh this captured my eye, I love the texture, tones, colour and its unique style. Its quite abstract, did you have any specific inspiration to paint this, or event to make you want to get it on paper?x
I think this one began either during or after a weekend in northern Minnesota (we'd go up north a lot). That's always been one of my favorite landscapes. It's always hard to do it justice through painting.
The sketchy lines of the sky and moon have a nice contrast against the smooth trees.
