Morning in the Studio

* This work comes ready to hang in a floater frame.*

Artist notes: As a landscape painter, my studio is often the last place I want to be on a sunny summer day when I can actually be outside gathering references or plein air painting. This painting is derived from a collage of four of my images that I used as a reference. While standing in the actual studio I was painting, I continued to make further observations. There are elements of an inside view where my brain is gathering everything up that is being experienced in this space and calling it “my studio” and then leaving me with a painting that only my heart can recognize.
