Turkey pond

This portrait makes me think of heaven. The undisturbed color of the prairie or field, the single person, and the beautiful scenery that the man is trying to get to. Sort of makes me think of a person's journey to the after-life. Walking to the tunnel of light through darkness, in this case walking towards the dark through the light. Now that i think about it seems sort of gothic. A good sort of gothic though. When we pass away though, if you think about it, our souls will forever be put to rest rendering our physical mind unconcious and therefore put in the dark forever. This painting makes me feel sort of tranquil but also a sense of discomfort, the thought of passing on to the afterlife rises. Tranquil and uncomfortable. The thought of passing to the other side peacefully but also the thought of dieing. Tranquility and sorrow is what feelings it brings up.
