Grove on Black

The black ground is left at the edges, so the pattern seems to fade toward the border. The gap at the center is built from light-toned cells.

Shishkin's forest passed through a grid: every cell has its own green and its own gold, and only at a distance do they add up to trunks and the light between them. A work for a wall you walk up to and away from.
