Iceland’s volcanic environment creates ideal conditions for mosses and lichens, which spread across lava fields and rocky terrain in many parts of the country.

A quiet forest stream covered in soft moss and flowing light.
In this gouache painting, I tried to capture the feeling of a forest slowly breathing through water, stone, and sunlight.

I haven't touched paints in 20 years, still more work to go on this piece. Destined as a housewarming present.

At last I can take a break!

Very tall Tasmanian Oak trees. 🥰 One of my favourite forests.
