This painting is based on a composite that I created in Photoshop from several photos that I had taken and others I've seen through the years. I was challenged by the idea of capturing the rays of the sun coming through the trees. I love how the sun creates designs on the ground and highlights in the trees. Sorry that the quality of this photo does not do the painting justice. It’s hard to avoid the light glare in the darker areas of the painting and I didn’t want to spend the money or the time to get a professional copy.
