This painting represents my desire to be close to nature, in the mountains, running up the hills, and dipping my feet in the water. I appreciate the time I can spend on my local Turkey Mountain as the trails are my escape from the city and even when the park is crowded the trails are so intertwined and the vegetation so thick that you are often alone on the hills. The smaller two Soulyps are taking in the scene, relaxing in the sun and enjoying the sites that nature has to offer. The largest of the Soulyps is free to wander the hills and the lake without restriction, this is the draw of mountains for me as I often feel restricted in my day to day - trapped in an office with very little desire to be there.
