breaking the rules of visual sense

Valley Work - digital painting / art prints - Dan Beck 2005

Funny I should want to write about this piece as an art print … because I have yet to see it printed at optimum size.  I can see sections of it at the proper size on my computer monitor - but not the whole piece at once.

It is, however, quite wonderful even printed at 13 x19".  I like the piece because it wasn’t about rules - the yellow and orange sky - just seemed right - the chaotic feeling to the land and dirt - didn’t have to make complete visual sense - it just worked.

On top of it - the statement - which I recall clearly at the time - the tractor driver I had never seen waving hello while my neighbors who I did know, ignored me from even closer.
