EXCERCISE WITH BLUE & MAGENTA

What a difference a day makes. One view, many moods.

From endless rain to colorful sunset. Mother nature never repeats itself.

FLAMING SUNSET

A main reason I'm living in the Catskill Mountain is because of the Hudson River School. Around every bend, it's another picture perfect landscape, just as an artist could wish. This sketch came about from a visit to an artist's studio. The beautiful effects of the dark shapes against a flaming sunset is a constant theme for the Hudson River School.

THE WOODS

There are a few signs of spring deep in  our mountain. The view from my desk is still very brown. But the brief sunset can turn my western view totally magical. From bleak to sensational!
