Merlin's Enchanted Keep





                                  An original acrylic/mixed media painting, on heavy card-stock
                                  19x26", unframed - (mat size, 25x32")
                                   $2,300.00, - (plus $30.00, pack and ship)

     What if there could be one, last, mystical and undiscovered glen, somewhere in the 
secret heart of an ancient British forest, where the captive soul of the legendary,
Arthurian wizard awaits to return?  And if such a magical spot still existed, might it not
appear something like this mysterious, forest landscape?  

                                                          (click on image to enlarge)


      The composition of the painting is designed to contrast the bright outer-world, beyond
the narrow entry-pathway through the forest, with the mystical, dark inner-world of the 
spirit of Merlin.  The painting was composed using various scraps of paper, painted and
glazed with acrylics, and then assembled into the final image.


     As a side note, although we may not have a Camelot world today, we could use a 
few wise wizards to counsel some of the Warts who are seeking political power now.
