Gabriella Kiss reminds us all to open our eyes and hearts to the wonders of the living forest. A deer has shed its antlers as it looks toward another year, a snake slips silently, perhaps unaware of its intimidating nature. In fall, mushrooms pop up brightly around every bend, and the smells of the turning season permeate our spirit. A film of frost ice has formed overnight, but the evergreen woods are unphased, versed in the transition. It is plain to see the source of inspiration in the artist's works, but rare to see such beauty in the expression.
