I love this one ! This tells the story so well Ray, the bare trees still standing after the fire, I see the fallen tree in back and the tall white bird, perhaps it's an egret, standing there on the right.
The autumn colors in back work to emphasize the trees in front.
We have a similar scene to this after a devastating forest fire that occurred a few years back, it will return! Thank you for sharing this!

    Pat, There seems to be fires all the time now and couple of days ago when I painted this piece a few days ago and yesterday, they announced the fires in California, so bad. I am glad you enjoy the message. Ray

    Hi Jirina, Thank you for your wonderful review, rating and compliments. We have been plagued by so many fires in the last few years and after the fires comes the Rejuvenation. I am so glad you enjoy this one. Ray
Comment from Kathy Banich


Hi, Ray. While reviewing this morning, I came across this bright, cheerful, intriguing painting titled "Rejuvenation". I smiled as I looked for all the hidden treasures and visually stumbled upon the white bird. Then I saw what appears to be an acorn. I like the composition of the repeating vertical lines set to the colors of autumn. A very fun peace that instills in fact a feeling of Rejuvenation.

    Hi Kathy, Rejuvenation is needed after all those fires throughout the world, regrowth of the surroundings brings life back to the flora. Thank you for your wonderful review, I am glad that you enjoy it. Ray

This nature shot is a rich abstract art treat for the tired eyes! Your framing draws the eye beautifully, and the play of light and shadows, combined with the rich colours, makes it truly captivating. Well done!

I can identify with this art piece because of the fires in Australia that destroyed a lot of the natural habitat of the animals. Now there is regrowth and natural renewal of plants and trees.

    Michele Thank you for the fine review. There have always been fires because of lightenig, Canada, California and South America. Although inconvenient, they are benificvial. I am glad you could identify. Ray
Comment from Way West


Very pretty Ray! I like the message that your painting conveys of life coming back to a burnt forest. The bright yellows and oranges are hopeful colors that make us feel good about the regrowth that you have included. I like the little bird sitting in the middle of the forest on the log and the finely detailed trees. A nice uplifting work, I like it! Thanks for sharing.

This piece is very representative of the fires that occurred in 2021. I love that you've shown the tree trunks reaching for the sky as if to say I will thrive! Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent!!

Comment from CREZart


Another very enjoyable piece of art. I as usual like your color palette and idea behind it. I like the small white flowers amount the trees. So typical of the wildflowers on a walk in the woods. Thanks
