Study, Light and Shadow Street When fall arrives in east

When fall arrives in east Tennessee

but I can always find a pleasant reprieve in The Great Smoky Mountains

there are many potential stories embedded within this subject and the solitary figure

but at the right time of day and with a gorgeous sky

and this moment was magical to me for its simplicity and boldness

Study, Light and Shadow Street When fall arrives in eastThe complexity of a New York City avenue breaks down into a harmony of primary reds, blues, and yellows during a winter morning. The tiny wedge of sunlight in the lower right corner of this composition was a catalyst for this motif. I just liked how it directs us into the cacophony of the city. >> This painting is the initial study for Light and Shadow, Big Apple.
