Moonshadow #4, page 13

Easily and by far my single most favorite page from the entire series. Actuallly, one of my all time favorite Muth paintings ever (along with the Doctor Strange piece also in this gallery).

While so many of the images from this series were either too intense or provacative, the beauty and innocence of this scene immediately made it stand out for me.

I love rainy days! And the juxtaposing of these two children playing on what most others would consider to be such a gloomy day, was such a brilliant choice by the artist.

The depth and detail of this piece are a never ending source of awe for me. The scene seems to go on forever, as the walkway curves into and beyond the exquisitely painted patch of trees. The refelection of the children on the wet ground and the kite tangled in the tree are two of my favorite detail elements.

In creative terms, the piece is brilliant, beautiful, and breathtakigng. As a display medium, it is an image that I have never tired of looking at even after 25 years. ENJOY!
