5x7 oil on canvas panel.....$120
Blue and orange are opposites on the standard color wheel... but on the artist's color wheel..the Munsell version...the opposite of blue is yellow and the opposite of red-orange is turquoise. Nothing says the high desert like the use of these colors. I also painted a slightly larger version of this piece ..an 8x10 titled 'Union of Opposites' which you can view by clicking the 'AVAILABLE PAINTINGS' link on this page. If you like art history [my minor in college]...check out the succinct work of the late great Maynard Dixon...a master of color oppositions you can see emulated by many famous landscape painters today.
Kim, this one is so cool. Love the warm/cool interplay, and the composition rocks.
