When I compare this landscape to the vast majority of his other paintings‚ it seems almost barren and dead. Despite this‚ in the focus of the painting we see that there is life‚ young life at that.

I strolled along the wooden bridge as the moderate‚ meek breeze brushed the hairs on my skin and my nose. There was a continuous melody of insects singing‚ while the owls‚ frogs‚ crickets

Through the trees you could barely see the grey‚ cloudy sky and fell the little bit of water still falling from the trees. Little droplets of water dripped off the pine needles and fell to the ground. The ground under the tall evergreens‚ was sound
