Connections

I found “Connections” a fitting title for this piece. I painted it and my most recent painting “Brilliant Shadows” with the same palette, so you’ll see lots of similarities… as well as differences. And in this particular painting I included fallen aspens representing relations and people in our lives. They come and they got, yet they always leave a little shadow of connection behind, which in turn creates something beautiful.
