This was a hard painting to get an accurate image of . It's about as close as I can get.A typical scene driving down back roads in the Pacific Northwest with the sun just coming up in the morning. The towering fir trees cut back in the middle for the power lines to run through.
I take all this in on my morning run before work, thanking God for two good eyes to see the natural beauty of His awesome creation.
I seem to be drawn to these "lonely road" paintings.........maybe because I am walking a lonely road right now........My girl away in Uganda for another year, faithfully serving God in ministering to the needs of the orphans and village children at New Hope Kasana. Bringing the love of the Father to the fatherless. I will be joining a team from Calvary Chapel South going out to New Hope in June for two weeks. I will share my adventures and hopefully my artwork of the amazing people and beautiful land of Uganda with you all as I have the opportunity.

Beautiful painting!! I had to look real close to see that it wasn't a photo. You can't get any closer to that!
Rob,
You actually make this "lonely road" look inviting! The light beckons me uphill. I am awestruck by your ability to capture light and shadow so perfectly.
...Looking forward to sharing the beauty of Africa with you!
Thank you Cheryl! I did more blending due to the nature of the scene with the misty morning fog.
Seems I can hear the drum beat of Africa even now Annie.....the time is going fast ........see you soon....
this is beautiful on so many levels. It is exquisite.
Thanks for visiting Dar, and for the kind comments.
