Watercolor – Valleys #2
This 2005 watercolor proposes an abstract and melancholic vision of the hilly landscape. The work eschews detail to focus on chromatic atmospheres, blending perspective planes into soft, shifting glazes.
The palette is earthy and suggestive, dominated by warm yellows and greens in the foreground that fade toward valleys and leaden skies tinted with lilac, indigo, and desaturated orange. A dark grove on the horizon sets the sole anchoring point of the composition. A small-format work suitable for imparting warmth and intimacy to modern or classic environments.
