I like finding spaces like this, away from the city, from the crowds and the commotion. I like the quiet of nature that you find here, it isn't total silence, there is a whisper that is created by the trees when the wind blows. Find a place like that, stay in that place for a while and see what it does to your mind and then while you're at it look at the sky for a while. I find places like this humble me and give me peace of mind, in a space this large suddenly problems feel small.
Maybe that's why I paint places like this, to remind me of the world out there and the peace that comes with it.
