Letting Go
The wind whispers a secret
A siren’s song
Or lovers call
Faithfully answered
And released
The cycle repeats
A mother stretches her arms
But the sky does not hear
Her silent tears
Falling, her sacrifices offer
The promise
Of spring
And love
-David Maxwell Maples
I wanted to explore landscape paintings more and thought a Dryad would be a nice addition. Through the course of the design process, I went through a variety of designs. Along the way, this painting turned more into an expression of loss and longing.
