I began this painting with complete focus, and before I realized it, it was done. I even tried to add a few more strokes, but it wouldn’t take them—like it already knew it was whole. I love how it has turned out. The tree in the foreground blending seamlessly into the background was something I chose deliberately. I could have brought them forward, but I wanted it to feel like one flowing space—calm, quiet, and connected. And the soft light gently peeking through, just enough to hint at warmth, without overpowering the stillness. Sometimes when everything aligns, the painting finds its own perfect balance—and this one truly did.
