The fifth in the Magic Light series this is another with a mysterious light source within a landscape, this time The Arches National Park in Utah. Based on a blue/orange complementary with the colours kept subdued apart from the sky which I guess is a nod to Maxfield Parrish who himself did a series of paintings of the American South West whilst recuperating from an illness. I like this Magic Light theme and I can see that there is quite a lot of scope within this simple idea of an exaggerated or unusual light source in different settings.
Oil on mdf 12" x 12".
There is a progress through this painting including what colours I used in previous posts on this blog.
