Summer's a-coming

"Summer Fields"
5"x7" acrylic on canvas
SOLD

Believe it or not, I drew inspiration from Klimt for this one, too. I'm going to have to try again, though, because as much as I love this one, it just doesn't capture that amazing, breathless subtlety of his landscapes. Now, it does a better job than this picture shows (why can't digital cameras pick up on everything we can see?), but even here.... those fat little chickens, content in the soft greens of the field, trees silhouetted against the soft-bright sky. It's one of those paintings I just want to crawl into, live in that world. I love those.
