I suggest this journey to the viewer where they can meet with mystical and have different questions and reactions . In the painting Into the woods I , there is a group of figures standing in one line crossing a trail without any movement , so the viewer will have some thoughts , and questions could be : who are they ? Why they are standing there ? Is it a good idea to come closer ? If the viewer come closer , there will be more details like scratched faces of these figures , an abandoned house down the trail with a yellow light coming through holes on the roof and cracks between boards . As a result , these narratives will lead for further questions . However , in the next painting Into the woods II the viewer will be faced with more confusing surroundings and a figure that is hiding behind a tree and looking straight to the viewer . In this painting , the viewer will have other questions , for example : why he is looking at me ? What should I do ? Is he lost ? The landscape looks natural , but with the addition of details everything starts to look different , ordinary things become unusual .
