Two new paintings

It’s early morning here, and the sun is shining. Perfect light for painting!
Lately, I’ve been working on simpler, nature-themed pieces. Not long ago, I talked about my fear of repeating myself and always painting the same things. But honestly, I love when artists have a clear style and focus—something so distinctive that you can lose yourself in it. So for now, I’m leaning into nature and greenery. At least until something else catches my interest.
In trying to constantly switch things up, I’ve realized my gallery can sometimes feel a bit disjointed. Every time I upload new work to my website, I end up rearranging things to create a cohesive colour story. I’ve also noticed that most of my paintings tend to be zoomed out, often showing wide landscapes with solitary figures (or the occasional cat). To switch things up, I recently painted two pieces without any people at all, one of which is a close-up.
I hope you like them.

Indirectly. There are small shrines everywhere, but I didn't see one in the forest. I still wanted to paint one. :D

Really amazing, they look like the forests here in New Hampshire. Was the small shrine based on something you saw in Japan?
