I was sitting under this tree canopy enjoying the calm following a Summer storm. The evening was approaching and there was a moment of absolute serenity. Mother Nature can still put on a magnificent display, ignorant to the troubles of her human occupants in these pandemic times. This tiny moment made me forget all the troubles of the world and find some peace. I have painted this to take me back to that time, and hopefully do the same for the observer. This is an oil painting using only palette knife, so has an impasto quality to it. It is quite large so would suit a feature wall.
