Stormy Meadow, L. Daniel, 12 x 16
Sometimes when the sky is darkest, the ground takes on an incredibly intense hue. In this meadow, the grass sparkled a brilliant chartreuse while the distant mountains came in and out of view with the fickle mist. Occasionally some light would push through on the horizon, but only for a moment. It was just one of those rainy mountain days... cozy...
That's beautiful! Love you

ReplyDeleteI love the simplicity in this painting, and the palette so perfectly conveys a stormy afternoon (it is monsoon season here, so I've been much of that lately!).

ReplyDeleteWonderful grays really set off the brilliant colors.
ReplyDeleteI like this one very much.
Well done.
This painting reminds me of scenes in Nova Scotia that I will see soon. It perfectly captures that atmosphere, with dark sky, and vivid fields. So lovely.
