The Portal


 The second painting resulting from my recent tour around the National Parks in the South West of the USA is again another fantasy oriented painting. I saw the central tree in a sequoia grove in Yosemite the shape of which immediately suggested something a bit Lord Of The Rings initially but when I got back to the UK I decided it would be more interesting as a portal. I added the figure as I felt it needed a sense of scale. 

This painting will be exhibited at IX in mid October in Reading PA.

Oil on fine cotton 16" x 12".

There is a step-by-step progress through this painting in previous posts on this blog.
