Babel - Deep Woods

A massive stone wall dominates the scene, its surface etched with fine linework that evokes both age and mystery. Gnarled tree roots claw across the wall’s base, their thick, earthy tones contrasting against the smooth, cool gray of the masonry. Tall evergreens frame the composition on either side, their deep greens rendered in flat, bold shapes that suggest a stylized, almost graphic-novel approach. In the foreground, a solitary figure in a lavender coat stands on a snowy clearing, head tilted upward. The figure’s simplified form and pastel hue make it a visual counterpoint to the darker, more angular elements around it. Snow drifts scatter across the ground in soft white patches, echoing the crisp highlights on the tree trunks. Above, the sky is a rich violet gradient, punctuated by a single, winding streak of pale light that seems to hover just in front of the wall. This luminescent curve draws the eye toward the structure’s hidden interior, hinting at a source of energy or magic behind the stones. Overall, the artist uses a limited color palette—purples, grays, greens, and whites—to create a harmonious yet uncanny atmosphere. Sharp lines and flat color blocks combine to suggest a narrative moment: a lone explorer encountering an ancient stronghold at twilight.
