PLEIN AIR ARTISTS

An Online Artist's Coop for Artists who Paint on Location

"Saffron Ridge"

Pastel on LaCarte 8.5x8.5"
My second Plein air piece a couple Sunday back ... Was not working ...way too "geometrical" so worked on it a bit more and it pulled me toward total abstraction...I scrubbed off areas to simplify it ...added some white areas...scrubbed more and POW!! Love it

What a beauty.  Instead of inches, this could be eight feet square.

looking at it again I've noticed lots of squares: white, pink, yellow, blue, brown, all around the green diagonal, making a very interesting composition- the yellow in the middle starts my eye off then I go clockwise around. Some are hidden, suggested: white bottom left , grey bottom right, yellow top left, light blue right middle, some appear later: black, actually the longer I look at it the more I find. Were you aware of them? This comes from your subconscious.
