The Best is Yet to Come Painting

This painting was inspired by a meadow high in the hills along the Appalachian Trail. There deep shadows of a late fall afternoon and the gorgeous blue of the sky popping through. The grasses were turning away from spring and summer and the sun was gently warm. I use oil with cold wax medium because of the special layering properties cold wax allows. Transparent layers on top of opaque ones, warm colors over cool ones, working back into under layers all allow for wonderful and unique effects. Although I love a lot of realism, I find that abstraction with its hints and suggestions invites viewers to participate in deciding "what is this about?" I paint the edges of the paintings so it appears that the center image wraps all the way around. No framing is necessary and the painted edge adds to a sense of dimension.
