I have drawn and painted the trail that I cut through my woods several times, and have a lot of images in the works for more. This was a very wet day after rain storms rolled through. My trail really looked like a stream as it weaved around the curves and the light from the reflections caught it. The pasture beyond was wet, the sky was heavy, and the trees were darkened by days of rain. Painting this with oil bars and brushes I hoped to bring out that sodden atmosphere.
