It does look like a picture stone, doesn't it? Thanks...also springtime frontier, too. I have a rush of work coming on this week, but I will do my best to find the full painting and post it, too. It's almost uncanny, the tiny bit this one takes up of the whole thing. Took me a few days to even notice what was going on in that tiny space. The scan doesn't really show it the way it looks. There is a clearly delineated sort of structure, with upturned eaves in the centre where the figures are and the banshee-like thing on the right doesn't show up well. I love the reach of the spindly black branches...they remind me of the dead statues of pinion pines up in the red hills with the green looking so much like the juniper trees with their springtime fresh colours.
