New Work: View through the Orange and Red Woods

View through the Orange and Red Woods
oil on canvas, 40 x 40 inches

In this oil I kept working to increase the drama. It went through many permutations with each one becoming simpler and brighter. In the end, it was the use of stronger contrasts that brought all the colors together harmoniously and at the same time, intensified and enriched each one.

Note the greens. Once they went it, it made the orange to yellow palette sing!
