"Woodland" is an abstract landscape-like painting. The top section features a soft, pastel pink color of a serene sky. Below this pink horizon is a broad band of muted, earthy brown, providing a sense of a distant land or thicket. There is a flurry of vertical strokes in various hues, including dark blues, burgundies, and occasional splashes of lighter blue that stretches across the middle portion of the painting. These strokes call to mind the impression of reeds, tall grasses and trees. The lower section transitions into a mix of greens and yellows, grounded by a pale yellow or beige at the very bottom, completing the natural theme. The painting has a pleasant, washed-out aesthetic with colors blending into one another, yet it still manages to evoke the wildness of nature. It's enclosed in a simple gallery floating frame that complements the artwork without drawing attention away from it.
