The Green Wood Beckons

The Green Wood Beckons is a vibrant green oil painting showing a path through a green wood with a deer stag watching from between the trees. It is 30x30x1.5 inches and is contemporary and semi-abstract in style. It was inspired by the happiness I feel when walking through a spring wood when the sun shines through the new leaves and casts green light all around. A deer stag observes from between the trees on the right. I do occasionally spot deer in forests but it is not easy as they hear me thrashing around before I get to see them and hide – usually by standing totally still and being completely silent. The painting is highly textured which was created by first painting the trees and branches in pinks rich red colours. Then, once dry, completely covering them in green paint and wiping off some of the paint to expose colours beneath. It is painted on deep edge canvas with green edges. No frame needed, ready to hang as it is.
