A Walk in the Woods

Here is a painting that has nine different components to it. Imagine walking in the woods, looking up, then looking across, and then down.  When you are aware of it,  you see fungi and mushrooms on the trees and at your feet.  I have been thinking of the forest and the amazing work that fungi does for the trees, and how magical and beautiful they are.  These images are painted on nine separate handmade boxes that are a set.
