A Look at the Dark Side

'Dead Trees'

This artwork is from a month ago, and I never shared it because I thought it was useless and unworkable.  But now that time has passed, I see the value of it and the value of dark, gloomy artworks.

Of course, we live in a society where practically all art and music created is dark and disturbing, and in comparison, my art seems naive and optimistic at times.  But that is part of the charm of this art.  It is otherworldly, simple, and benevolent.  

So the black to white gradient in the background, and the dying trees, and the off color sun actually creates a gloomy mood but not too gloomy.  

Enjoy.
