Description
The Road Darkens
Selected for a Climate Change Exhibition at Keller Gallery in New Haven, CT. A very old “bear right” road sign, discovered on a back road where it had apparently been overlooked by the highway department, is at the forefront of this surreal color montage. Covered with map liken, its painted surface barely visible, it seemed a fitting sign of the confusion and fear associated with a changing climate, particularly when coupled with the darkened sky and chaotic clouds.
The title, however, provides one ray of hope and optimism. It comes from a quote by J.R.R. Tolkien in his book “Fellowship of the Rings”. The full quote is “Faithless is he who says goodbye as the road darkens.” This admonition reminds us of our duty to remain faithful to the cause of reducing the effects of climate change.
This image is part of a series on Climate Change. This image alludes to the growing crisis of climate change. The image is a color montage of several different images including elements of photography and watercolor painting.

This image is available as a signed original or an affordable unsigned open-edition print. Signed originals are considered valued works of art because of the artist’s signature. For that reason they are created in limited numbers or a single original. They are printed on very high quality rag fine art paper or canvas or metal. Open-edition prints bear no signature or may have a digital stamp. They are an affordable alternative for people who simply love the work and can be purchased on various grades of paper and sizes to reflect your cost constraints. Their value is purely personal for people who love art and want to display an image.

Wayne D. King’s images are a celebration of life, blending the real and the surreal to achieve a sense of place or time that reaches beyond the moment into a dreamlike quintessentialism designed to spark an emotional response. Using digital enhancement, handcrafting, painting, and sometimes even straight photography, King seeks to take the viewer to a place that is beyond simple truth to where truth meets passion, hope and dreams.
