All in the Glow, oil on canvas, 48 x 48 inches
Exhibiting: Saks Galleries, Denver$9250 framed
This oil is a larger, more expansive reimagining of the earlier painting Soft Evening Colors,keeping the same basic composition while shifting the mood and intensity. In this version,the sun drops lower and burns brighter and that small change sends a warm radiance acrossthe entire landscape.
Every area of the surface was reconsidered and strengthened, with more presence, nuance, and more saturated color. The result is a luminous field of light, a glowing object in the room.
Once finished, I was surprised to see this painting take over, outshining some of the other vividworks in the studio. It seemed eager to get out into the world.
