Morgan Forest


Morgan Forest, oil/panel, 24" x 24"

I'm interested in form as mass. But I'm also interested in light. Often the light in my landscapes is both from an external source and an internal glow. There are times when haze in the air allows me to get a handle on daylight. I kept working on this smaller painting with rapid over-washes until the blues, greys and yellow-greens met at the right value and felt like the kind of light you get on a summer morning. ....A summer morning in Morgan Forest.
