Created in Novemeber 2015, Meet Me in the Woods is a watercolour, ink and pencil artwork created by Zyra Bañez for the YouTube Artist Collective.
This collective featured several artists from the YouTube community with a shared goal to create an artwork each month based on a selected theme voted by the community.
The November theme was to draw a song. The chosen song that inspired this artwork was Meet Me in the Woods by Lord Huron.
After listening to the lyrics, Meet Me in the Woods (Zyra’s version) was created. This time it focused on her personal interpretation, which was growth through the loss of innocence.
The woods represented life experiences that we go through, sometimes its darkness engulfing us, however we emerge from the woods a new person.
