new painting
This is the latest bound for
Darnell Fine Art in Santa Fe. It is 60" high x 30" wide, oil on panel. The title is "To the West." Not only do the colors and textures seem very southwestern to me, but I finished this yesterday just after my younger son left home on his way to enter college in Arizona.
Below is a detail/closeup view of the top right of the reddish panel.
A request--paintings with high contrasts between dark and light panels such as this one are hard for me to photograph, even though I have a very nice digital camera with 7 megapixels. So much detail just disappears, especially in the lightest panels. If any one has helpful suggestions to address this problem I would love to hear them. Thanks.
