A small freeform study I made recently.

I would love to hear your thoughts.

Far and wide, throughout all the realms, were sung the riches of the unconquered South. Many were the souls who coveted them for their own. Many a merchant did set forth upon that road, yet far from all did return. Treacherous are those desert lands, strewn with stones sharp as daggers. And God forbid your wagon breaks down out there! No path back shall remain to thee...

This is my entry for the Pick your poison-category of Summer Joust 2025.

I chose these 3 criteria:

Beaten Track: Horses leave tracks that will soon be covered by sand.

Going Alternative: Cacti and Dead Tree do not use plant parts.

Unstable Load: As a result of a broken wheel, apples and boxes fell out of the wagon.

Reflections can address light in some ways that you might think casuals, but sometimes they mix light and darkness so that the world can see that they are symbionts one to each other.
