Moonlight fills the center of this painting with a cool, soft glow, which fades into shades of blue, violet and black at the periphery.

The tiny branches weave together in a complex, busy tangle, backlit by the moon and stars.

The edges of the trees are soft and feathery against the night sky.

Layers upon layers of blue and black give this painting depth.

While this painting can be displayed on its own, it is particularly striking when hung side-by-side with its companion piece “Brisk Day.”

Notice that I made the branches of one painting reach off the edges of the canvas and into the other canvas!

The huge scale of these paintings is hard to convey in photos. Seeing them in person is a different experience!
