Not Lost, Just Wandering

Original Palette Knife Painting | 16x20" | Framed

Dreamy and contemplative, Not Lost, Just Wandering invites the viewer into a quiet moment of reflection and discovery. A lone figure in a wide-brimmed hat drifts through lush greenery and soft wildflowers, surrounded by layered shades of deep forest green and gentle sunlight.

Bold palette knife strokes create rich texture and movement, giving the landscape a sense of depth and life. Subtle hints of a hidden cottage in the background add to the feeling of peaceful retreat—where time slows and worries fade away.

This 16x20" original is framed in a light maple float frame—ready to hang and perfect for adding warmth and calm to your space.
