Enigmatic shadows and sun-kissed leaves create a play of light and texture, evoking a sense of serene movement and wild beauty. This artwork not only portrays a location but also elevates it into a fantastical vision, rich with emotion and bursting with life. As a representation of Texas' natural landscapes juxtaposed with urban growth, it provides a narrative on the harmonious coexistence of nature and city life. *** About Cedar Ridge Preserve: Cedar Ridge Preserve is a scenic natural area located in Dallas, Texas, featuring over nine miles of walking trails, a variety of wildlife, and beautiful native plants.
