In this orange red forest, the sun shines through the tree trunks, filling the whole painting with warm light.

I painted this from the same photo I took in the woods near my home as my previous painting “Light Between Trees.”
But the choice of colors in this painting give it a unique mood.

Trees do not always have to be painted in the typical browns and greens. A forest painted in other colors of the rainbow can turn a landscape painting into a conversation piece. The imaginative use of color encourages you to open up your imagination in the space where you display this art.

The unconventional use of color makes this painting truly one-of-a-kind. The rich, bold red and orange tones will lift your spirits.
You can see the painterly brush strokes in the hints of ferns and other forest undergrowth in the foreground.

This painting looks amazing as a statement piece from a distance.
