Artists - paintings of the Pinelands (mot Pine Barrens)

[Ramesh V]

The Pinelands (not "barrens") is an artists canvas. Phtotographers have doen so much to showcase the Pinelands
It is time that artists did too....
I attach a few of my recent attempts at showcasing the Pines - hope you out there will be motivated to enjoy the same level of peace I get from creating art work...

I would encourage developing a forum of art of the the Pienlands?

I don't understand Ramesh. Why does the last one say "Pinelands ORV damage" underneath. Seems odd to paint something for aesthetic viewing with those words beneath it.

Well, anywhere you go into the Pinelands- the damage from ORV's is evident. albeit some places are still pristine. As a geologist (now happily retired) I seem to be drawn to the eroded soil slopes and ofcourse the ruts from travel. Human encroachments on the very edges of the Pinelands are depicted in the other three images. The view on "ORVs etc...." you comment on I think is still aesthetic and to cherish what it could have been! This last one - imagine it with just narrow trails rather than broad swaths of broadened tracks....just my two bits worth!

Thank you for your comment - and I do appreciate it; hope my reply satisfies your question
