This painting is very calming and I wanted to show the purest beauty of Gods creation. After I finished I realized the top rock-like formations resemble angels and the bottom animals climbing the hills resemble us on our journey in life. The angles are looking down on us but always there to help. Often I find symbolism I never intended when I began the painting, but after looking at it, it seems to appear as if from nowhere.
