"Cabin in the Woods" Framed Original Acrylic Mini Painting

THE STORY BEHIND THE PAINTING:

I used to travel with my grandparents when I was a teenager. One spring, I traveled to the west coast with them, to the temperate rainforests of Oregon. My grandfather was the visiting speaker for a Mennonite community's spring revival meetings. I felt a strange energy in that forest and the church community we visited. People were sad, suppressed, and desperate, and the forest was wet, cold, and mysterious. My grandparents knew a community secret that they wouldn't tell me. The moss clung to everything, like the unsettled feeling I couldn't shake while I was there. We stayed in a tiny cabin, and I remember wishing to run into the forest in my white dress, away from the huge Mennonite meals and the secrets.

THE STORY BEHIND THE PAINTING:

I often went for long, contemplative walks on our family farm when my life became chaotic and unpredictable. Nature offered patterns, seasons, and quiet. I remember one morning in particular, walking between a field and the forest. The sun was filtering between the leaves of ancient trees, and as I wandered around a bend in the path, I came face to face with a deer who had been grazing before my arrival. We stared at each other, startled, before she bounded away into the forest.

This painting is inspired by that encounter. You can almost see the figure emerging from the blinding sunlight while the deer remains calm and unaware. An owl sits, unnoticed, a quiet watcher of the scene below.

THE STORY BEHIND THE PAINTING:

I used to spend hours and hours in my mother's kitchen garden on the farm, not because I wanted to, but because it was my job to help pull the weeds. There were white butterflies everywhere, flitting over the rows of vegetables, darting through the apple orchard, and dancing in the fields beyond. I loved to watch them. I thought they looked like little ghosts compared to the gorgeous, ostentatious monarchs that shared the gardens with them. This painting is inspired by those little white butterflies.

THE STORY BEHIND THE PAINTING:

I loved ghostly short stories as a teen. This painting is a memory, wrapped in the pages of an old book. A beautiful, elusive shadow disappears around the corner of an old, overgrown garden. The birds are quiet, and the air is heavy with the scent of rain and lilacs. Dirt, petals, and grass clippings cling to your feet as you stop, still in the path, questioning what you saw.

THE STORY BEHIND THE PAINTING:

I was nine years old when I picked up a camera for the first time. It was my mother's old digital camera. The sun had just risen, and the grass was heavy with dew. Overnight, little spider webs had appeared in the grass, and they sparkled like gems in the golden sunlight. They were my first inspiration. I photographed as many as I could, trying to capture their shimmering and, most importantly, the little creatures who created them. This painting is a nod to my younger self, inspired by the golden moments of a new day.

THE STORY BEHIND THE PAINTING:

I live in a dense, wild, old forest. I watch many creatures pass through our property every day. This painting is inspired by a feral cat that passes through our property every few months. He has his own little footpath, and he likes to stare at my cats through the windows of our home. I give him food when he comes by more frequently. It's one of my favorite sights- him wandering through the property, half hidden by wildflowers, under the watchful eyes of the birch trees.
