Finally finished the last in my "Home Land" series destined for my solo show at the Abend Gallery, Denver CO in late March this year. This one is set in a notional swampland somewhere in Louisiana and is a follow on from an earlier painting "The Outsider" which has a strip of city lights running along the painting but this time with no buildings showing. Again in a way this is another outsider living in a shack in the swamps away from the bright lights of human occupation.... I suppose there is an echo of recent USA forest fires in the distance too....
Oil on canvas 31 1/2" x 12".
There is virtually no step-by-step progress through this painting on the blog because I lost access to it for about a month while Google messed around with new EU regulations on cookies!
