ABOUT THE WORK

Artwork Description

In the stillness of night, the redwoods stretch toward the heavens, their branches cradling the moon like a sacred offering. The sky, a deep and infinite blue, hums with the quiet energy of the cosmos, while rust-fire paint flickers like distant memories. Hidden among the shadows, a squirrel lingers—a silent keeper of the forest's secrets. This piece is an ode to the liminal, where glitter becomes starlight, and the boundary between earth and sky dissolves into wonder. Shadows merge with the infinite, And the night hums its quiet tune.

THE ARTIST'S VOICE

Interpretation / Story

Where The Trees Hold The Moon reads as a study of animal symbolism and instinct, organic forms and the living natural world, place, shelter, and atmosphere. The layered mixed-media surface turns image, texture, and material detail into an organic and atmospheric, intimate and emotionally charged atmosphere, inviting slow looking and a personal symbolic reading.
