Acrylic on Archival Gessobord with 3/4" Birch Sides, 12 x 12". Ready to hang!
Today I try to capture some perspective. Atmospheric perspective, that is. The water molecules in the air create a sense of distance with the lightening and softening of each distant hill. I've always loved this look. It creates a magical effect, doesn't it? Are you ever out driving and you see a magnificent sunset or sunrise, and you want to grab your camera to capture it? Well, if you have ever tried it, it is almost always unsuccessful. It is so difficult to capture the effect of light with a camera, unless you have some crazy lenses and filters. To reproduce it is difficult when the objective camera lens tries to grab it. The closest I can get is to try to paint it. Even that is challenging. This original painting captures the light at the horizon line much better than even this photo of the original does. The orange is more pure and the blues are toned down a bit and move towards a cool gray in the distant hills. How we want to capture beauty and hold on to it! How difficult it is!
