Fall Into the Black is a play on words with "Fall" standing for both the season and colours as well as a release from the rope swing that is attached to the large tree within the main focal point at the rock where one jumps from. The "Black" is because this is on the Black River, which does have a dark colour as well.
This was a commission and the scene is one of the collector's favourite spots along the Black River where they frequent with their pontoon boat for fun and frivolity. They wanted a center piece for their new home, and one that was personal for them.
This was completed in-studio using images I took while the commissioners toured me along the Black River in their pontoon boat.
