23 July, 2009 Abstract Landscape by Kyra Wilson


23 July, 2009
Artist: Kyra Wilson; Vermont
Title: Purple Trees (Enchanted Forest Series)
Medium: Oil and metal (copper) on canvas
Available: http://kyraart.blogspot.com/
Appeal:

Real trees are not like this. They are rigid, dark and only move when the wind is blowing but here the trees are wild, flowing and seem to have a mind all their own. The swirls seem so chaotic while simultaneously fitting together as if part of a larger puzzle. Life can be like that sometimes- a jumble of chaos, compartmentalized. If this picture symbolizes that on some level then where does our moon fit and what might the moon represent? It's significant presence is like a lighthouse in an unnatural storm made by nature. A forest like this would be an enchanting thing to walk through on a moonlit night- provided the trees didn't eat me when I passed by. :-)
