Digital Painting: Recollection and Art Prints
Energetic portrayal of looming clouds and hill and mountain landscape
Clouds on the Mountain - digital painting - 2003
Its fun to see this piece particularly in relation to the piece below or by clicking. The two aren’t the same scene, but they are practically the same theme.
The above piece was bold and energetic. The focus is on the clouds. I was content at the time with this looser overlapping transparency style of portraying the mountains and hills.
If my recollection is correct, this is one of the first pieces I did when I realized and figured out how to adjust my canvas to be horizontal.
In some programs it would be obvious - but actually nothing is obvious until you know.
The piece was created with less actual pieces and will only enlarge to a 22×28" size. But unlike some of the newer work - it looks complete printed on 13×19" watercolor paper.
My favorite aspects of this piece are how naively flat it all looks while at the same time showing depth; and then of course I love the many toned ever-looming clouds and the checkerboard shadows they cast.
