This is another great piece Ray. Your colors truly demonstrate the burnout well. Dark and wiped. Very nicely presented and framed. Well done.

    Thank you Jodi, forest fires have been happening for millions of years started by lightening and the pine cones need the hi heat to swell and pop open and then recovery starts. Thank you for the fine review and I am glad you like it. Ray

Your meaningful artwork is impressive. Although, the painting is abstract I can see burned debris laying on the ground and some water bubbling up. The coloring resembles debris of natural disasters in reality. The panting is excellent composed and framed. The composition is balanced.

Beautiful. What a image to ponder. A re birth of sorts. We saw many burned out areas on out trip to Yellowstone last fall before recovery. The colors you used are hopeful glimmers of life. Just love it! Well done.

Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan


I wonder what remains to be recovered once the greenery on land is burnt out. Sad to see so many forest fires in US and in some parts of Europe. You have effectively shown the remnants of what was once a thriving landmass. Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

    The fires are a result of a natural occurrence, lightening. The seeds of conifers need the heat of the fire to open up and then they disperse into the rich soil and then recovery happens. It is a natural life cycle that has been happening over millions of years. So when you see the green after a forest fire, thats recovery. Thank you for inquiring and your review. Ray

Great painting Ray of this natural scenery with contrasting details. I like the tiny sticks and lushes greenery throughout.
Wonderful colors and such creative artwork presented here.

COOL,Ray!
It's a neat Abstract creation and it makes me think of pictures I've scene of sections of the infamous 'Ho Chi Minh Trail' in Laos and Cambodia and how it looked after years and years of intense carpet bombing by B-52s 'back in the day'.
It's said that lots of those areas will NEVER 'recover'!

Comment from Way West


This is an artwork that really touches my soul Ray as we have had extensive wildfires around us for the last 10 years. Watching the scars recover is painful...
Your work shows the grim colors of fire but also offers the beautiful greens that denote new growth and hope. I love the textures and implications you have addressed. Well done and thanks for sharing!

Comment from FBI GUY


The overview of this piece looks like a forest knocked down by a giant wind. The underlying structure overlaid with the darker dabs of paint add complex layers of depth. Very nice piece of artwork.

Comment from Regina E.H-Ariel


This is again special as this time I cannot see any animals or pictures and this time you have informed us that this is a recovering land and that is special again for sure - as all these traditional art contents have such a super content that I am imagining that this is what will happen when our global shift is activiert, which will happen at the end of 2022 - so your content is again so outstanding with such a super color combination, that the result is fantastic again, xoxo

A good looking image posted here! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us a good view of land after a fire. Colours, textures and tones are good. Nicely painted!
