The woods seemed to beckon in the spring but became menacing in the winter. One day when I went for a walk on my property, trudging through leaves and muck down hill on the mountain, I heard a terrible piercing noise. I was shocked by by the sound of deafening rifle shots. They were close enough to create tintinnitis. Yet from where the bullets came, I could not tell. Terrified, I scrambled up the hill and I sprinted home. I hope viewers will feel some empathy with the sense of cold dread and disturbing mystery. I found the box and other small items to glue onto the canvas to create a sense of both familarity and fear. The landscape is abstracted just as the forest is on a steep hill at dusk.
