| Haze in the Distance II oil on canvas, 40 x 40 inches |
In this painting the sun is intensifying everything in the landscape but it is hidden. All is heightened and the colors border on the extreme. Even so, everything is in balance, allowing the bright colors to appear normal. The painting started with my insisting on the bright foothill colors and that in turn pushed the color of every other element in the landscape. Much was added and subtracted - all with the goal of simplifying the landscape and balancing the radiant lime fields against the blue-purple backgrounds.
