Light through the Trees

Getting my "Monet" on tonight!  Feeling impressionistic, I play with light and shadow on the path through the woods.  My intention was to go dark and moody, pushing the realism - but that is not what happened here!  My brush has a mind of it's own, and doesn't really let me interfere with it's strokes.  I'm not at all sure how I feel about this!  Too crazy?  Too many brush strokes?  The color did not even go the way I planned.  I am tired, and I have had an exhausting couple of weeks - so, maybe this is how I paint when my mind is not engaged.........painting number 659 in as many days.  Wonder what my brush will do tomorrow?
