Additional Information
Inspiration : The idea was born after finding a branch in the river, then I sailed in a kayak Since in my style I'm using woods in aquascaping. I wanted to try to extract a cave system with a deep perspective. I used the sunset because I wanted warm colors in my work. In my works I want to see a cheerful and warm picture.
