Mountain air has a mystical effect on the air and light. I often feel like I am seeing colors that are off the spectrum. What do we call green that is just beyond any green we've previously known? Rather than trying to name it, I let the waves of color and light affect me on a sensory level. My intention in this piece is to share that experience with the viewer.
This piece was painted plein air in my back yard. Layers of oil paint reveal the depth and complexity of the mountain landscape, and reflect the changing of the seasons.
Summer greens make room for a slight yellow tinge of the changing of the leaves for fall.
Green Peaks is a vibrant and richly colored painting that will brighten up your special room.
This oil painting comes framed in a simple black frame, measuring 14 x 14 x 1 inches, ready to hang.
