Description
This is the lane into the Singleton Sanctuary as it appeared in the early afternoon of Saturday February 5th, 2022. The lane can be more like a bobsled run in the winter. Fun! The trees grow close to both sides and the branches and limbs overhang the lane and reach out to touch their neighbours on the other side. With no leaves in the winter, the sun does reach the snowy lane for an hour or two in the early afternoon. The winter sun lines up with the orientation of the lane for only a short period of time. Otherwise the Tree Tunnel rarely sees the sun especially in summer when the leaves are fully out. Turning into the Tree Tunnel after a day in the outside world always feels good - leaving the cares of the world behind. The Tree Tunnel is a portal into another, natural world - a Sanctuary that is calm and mainly free of the stresses of the outer world.
This was almost a week after the biggest snowfall of the winter. The snow removal contractor needed to bring his tractor to clear the lane, one bucket at a time. It was a big job. The snowblower on my tractor works great and leaves the gravel on the lane where it belongs.
I was thinking that this could be turned into a really large canvas. It might work! My goal was to draw the viewer down the lane and into the Singleton Sanctuary toward the light and the protection of the forest. That is the way I felt about the oils as I painted. This view is also looking down a slope.
