Top of The Cliff

If one is trapped long enough indoors with only indoors things to paint, sooner or later one will resort to imagery drawn from sketches, old paintings of lesser success, or even successful ones of a different size. Thus a rocky promentory somewhere in Vermont, with high summer foliage and sunny summer skies, comes to life in the wintry studio (we had some more snow last night).
One clings to sanity any way possible.
I really like this one Dean. Some of my favorite paintings are of seemingly insignificant subjects... or ones that are often overlooked. This is a great example of what a thoughtful composition can do for a simple subject. Really nice.
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed reading your thoughts that accompany your paintings. Great blog.
