This artwork was based on a Renoir painting of an innocent scene of friends in the park that I have adapted and changed to add mystery and strip the figures of features and details and merge them with the evocative plants that surround them. I am interested in the interaction of the figures and questions about the story behind this scene. Who is the ominous figure leaning out of the foliage? Who is the protective figure holding back the branches?
