"Out My Back Door" by Steven McHugh  Image: The artwork is a vibrant landscape painting that showcases a densely wooded area. Tall, slender trees with pale trunks stand prominently in the foreground, their branches interspersed with spring foliage in rich shades of yellow, gold, and red (maple blossoms). The ground below is a colorful mix of purples and pinks (Lupines), and greens (new growth), suggesting a field of wildflowers and dense undergrowth. In the midground, a body of water reflecting the bright colors surrounds the trees, adding depth and contrast to the scene. The background features a darker, more muted forest line under a soft blue sky with light, wispy clouds. The overall composition evokes the serene beauty and tranquility of a forest during the fall season, rendered in a richly textured, impressionistic style.

Inspired by the natural beauty of Madeline Island, "Out My Back Door" embodies the serene and ever-changing landscapes of the Apostle Islands in Lake Superior, WI. This mixed-media  abstract piece is a testament to the artist's unique vision and skill, capturing the essence of the island's raw beauty. It offers a glimpse into a world where imagination meets reality, providing a captivating addition to any art collection. Discover the harmony of colors and textures that reflect the artist's surroundings. Experience the artistry that transforms nature's elements into a visual feast for the senses.

This oil and cold-wax painting on wood panel measures 18.75" x 18.75" x 2.5" natural wood varnished gallery floating frame.  Shipping is included with purchase in the U.S.
