Acrylics

I needed to paint something and this is the result. I'd recently spent several days in the rainforest and the woods near the ocean so I decided to do something that contrasted with all that green. The green does show in the painting, but, like a bright flower in the mountains, it is no more than a few freckles. The picture maintains a symmetry of balance from left to right in areas of shade and light. Again, out of contrast, the majority in this picture is light while certain smaller portions hold the shade.
