Twilight Companions

When I pass by this group of trees at twilight, I often think of dear friends whose character is much like that of an oak - in the face of life's troubles, they weather life's winds of change. And with the breaking new day, they are there, steadfast to greet the new day with hope and resolve.
What an inspiration.

Beautiful painting and post. I also love trees and think of them as strong and steady. These are so pretty and love the light on them.

Beautiful painting, insightful post. I often like to do Tree Posture in yoga outside for just those reasons you stated. Congrats on getting in Daily Painters as well. Been thinking of you and love seeing your paintings evolve.
Karen, I feel the same way about those trees! Such a powerful image!
Beautiful landscape, Karen! I love your soft, tonalism technique. It is so inviting!! :)
Beautiful. Strong oaks---but painted with such soft edges, just lovely!!
Thanks all I appreciate your comments. Since I posted this I have added additional glazes and think the painting has grown in character!
Posting the completed painting that I have been working on.
