Tucked away in the woods is a peaceful place, where lush treetops obstruct your view of the sky above in the most magical way. Rustling leaves muffle out the sounds of cars and people. Light and warmth from the setting sun pierce through thousands of tree trunks stretching as far as the eye can see.
This golden hour made me feel torn between relaxing in the moment with a cup of coffee, or exploring on the nearby paths. I chose to explore, paint this scene later, and relax with my coffee while painting! It’s amazing how nature can make me feel so calm while provoking an immense amount of curiosity. I hope you feel that tension between peace and wonder as you look at this scene.

This painting is from the Legdes painting collection. My friends, Drew and Carrie, built a beautiful cabin on this property and turned it into an AirBnB. I feel honored that they let us stay here and paint little glimpses from such a special place.
